Freedom to explore

Science centres and museums naturally tend toward trying to tell people facts, but this is not their strong point. Their strength is in creating memories, impressions, and inspiring their visitors. How can we create exhibits that work to these strengths? The Exploratorium started the trend of exploratory, open-ended exhibits with Active Prolonged Engagement (APE), and in the UK other centres are following suit and exploring ways to make exhibits flexible, rewarding and completely open ended.
