As part of an NSF-funded project, Guidelines for Designing Challenging and Rewarding Interactive Science Exhibits (DRL-1612577), the Museum of Science, Boston, CAST, EdTogether, and the University of Rochester held a four-part webinar series on “productive struggle,” a mixed emotional experience during which learners persist through negative feelings like confusion and frustration to achieve a satisfying resolution. In this webinar series, members of the team talk through their thinking and methods in designing productive struggle exhibits and also highlight how designing for emotions can create deeper, more inclusive learning experiences.
In this third part of our webinar series, we share our evidence-based design framework, which includes strategies for designing exhibits that support the emotional experience of productive struggle. Hear about the framework and learn how we applied it through an interactive natural history exhibit.
