Abstract

"Ancient Egyptian artifacts are central to the learning experiences of schoolchildren, university students, and members of the public in museums across the world. Teaching Ancient Egypt in Museums: Pedagogies in Practice is a cross-cultural endeavor that poses the question, What do best practices in museum pedagogy look like for ancient Egyptian material culture? This series of co-authored essays reflects the breadth and collaborative nature of museum learning. They are written by Egyptologists, teachers, curators, docents, museum educators, artists, and community partners working in a variety of institutions around the world-from public, children's, and university museums to classrooms and the virtual environment-who bring a broad scope of expertise to the conversation and offer inspiration for tackling a diverse range of challenges. Contributors foreground their first-hand experiences, pedagogical justifications, and reflective teaching practices, offering practical examples of ethical and equitable teaching. The volume is intended to serve as a resource for teaching with Egyptian collections at any museum, and at any level"--
