  • Abstract
    This paper presents a scenario to enrich children´s experiences during a museum visit by implicitly guiding them through the exhibition space via a collaboratively created, topic related questionnaire. At the end of the visit, a personalised virtual museum catalogue can be created. This allows children to access data about the subjects they were most interested in during their visit and re-use it either at home or in the classroom, e.g. to search for further information on-line.
