Abstract

This study investigates the potential role of museums as online multimedia educational providers for the 21st century, framed within the context of current educational reform. Literature published between 1990-2001 was selected for review. Category construction was employed for data analysis. Results present four emerging themes: (1) educational needs in the 21st century; (2) the teaching and learning paradigm shift; (3) new educational technology tools; and (4) the changing educational role of museums. Suggestions for action are included.
