Fragestellungen, Kriterien und Modelle // Angesichts der rasanten Zunahme an digitalen Projekten und Initiativen haben Fragen nach dem Erfolg beim Publikum und somit der Messbarkeit, der Nutzungsintensität und der Learnings massiv an Dringlichkeit gewonnen. Johannes Bernhardt und Christian Gries eröffnen mit einem relationalen Modell, das Museum und digitale Besucher*innen gleichermaßen berücksichtigt, die Diskussion zum Thema.

From the meta-museological point of view, the two key questions are: 1) What are all the ‘cyber’ dimensions of the museum? 2) Is Cybermuseology a research field or is it an applied discipline? Tracking and registering the various digital dimensions of the museum will allow us to outline the scope of the field and answer the first question, while analysis of the literature devoted to cybermuseological issues will address the second question.

What conclusions can be drawn from quantitative data collection for qualitative museum experiences?
