The current museum pedagogy is “rocket science” – an established and dynamically evolving scientific discipline that could actually respond to the changing needs of the museum audience and to new international events and also appropriately reflects the findings of extensive empirical research of museum education. The aim of this paper is to recall the selected theoretical foundations of museum pedagogy and also the importance of systematic empirical research of museum education. This research is needed to further theoretical and practical development of museum education. At the same time provides an objective and necessary data to museums and society's legitimate need to justify further development and wider support museum education.

The paper deals with the objectives of educational activities in the context of the complete museum planning. We examine the process from the strategic planning stage in which the objectives are followed by the mission and vision of a museum to the final setting of general objectives of museum’s educational activities which are subsequently implemented by partial and operational objectives. A proposal for general objectives of museum teaching is formulated and the taxonomy of educative objectives as currently applied in education is proposed. The paper emphasizes the fact that the visitors must ultimately determine all museums planning, which is to say, they are the determinants to all objectives at all stages of museum planning.

The contribution presents outcomes of a research carried out among young, beginning teachers. The aim was to ascertain the respondents’ attitude towards museums and museum education, but also their will to cooperate and the requests they make as a presupposition of deeper cooperation. Based on the results of the research, the concept of a “friendly museum” can be formulated, along with a notion of an ideal museum, which complies with the repeated requests of both teachers to-be and experienced teachers.

The paper examines the problem of change in Central-Eastern European museum education in the globalising world. The main objective is to answer the question of whether museums located in peripheral regions of semi-peripheral states introduce patterns developed in global core-states or maintain the approach invented during the former political period. Its main assumption is that globalisation is a discursive process engaging global, national and local cultural elements, leading to reshaping of local patterns. The paper is based on 14 in-depth interviews conducted with curators working at local museums of the Sub-Carpathian and Košice regions, supported by four interviews carried out with museum workers of national museums in Warsaw and Bratislava.

The authors describe the preparation of specialized courses on museum education and exhibition management which aim to introduce students to interacting with the public and the use of various presentation methods for educational purposes. Museum education is currently one of the fastest evolving branches of museum studies and museum practice. The museum education courses taught as a part of the Museology and Cultural Heritage program at the Faculty of Arts provide both a wide theoretical background and significant practical experience the proof of which is a number of successful student projects in both academies as well as beyond.

The study deals with the question, what is a small museum and what are its specifics compared to other museums. Based on available foreign and local sources, it summarizes the current state of research which is largely focused on searching for the consensus on how to clearly define this type of museums. The study is based on the published results of key research in the past twenty years. It outlines selected approaches to the characteristics of a small museum and summarizes its typical features. Analogously, it looks at the state of research in the Czech museum sphere, where the topic of small museums has been repeatedly opened, examined and debated from different perspectives of professional activities and professions in a small museum. The study raises the question of how to effectively build on this state of research and develop it further within the Czech Republic, where this type of museums seems to be insufficiently mapped so far.

The subject of the research presented here is the language and content of the definitional terms, categories and concepts relating to museum education in the historiography of the topic. The article is a review that provides an analysis of selected papers on museum education, surveying the categories, terminology and definitions proposed by Polish, Ukrainian and Russian researchers. The study also involved looking at museum websites to review the descriptive terms, concepts and categories used in the sections relating to the museums’ educational activities. Finally, against this background the authors present their own approaches and definitions relating to museum education. The work is partly a result of the experience of the authors’ own common educational practice and investigations. The cultural contexts of museum education are significant and influential in the quality of the services provided in each of the surveyed countries and museums. The generalisations presented are appropriate to the specific contexts of the research reports and educational projects quoted.
