Currently, there are numerous museums in Korea including 104 national 96 private registered museums not to mention number. of commercia1 art ga1leries. The collections of these museums include artifacts from excavation of historic sites' , artworks, documents, folklore, religious icons, medical instruments, and records, agricultural appliances, stationaries, lamps, stones, locks and keys and more. A basic function of museurn has been public service for communities through exhibition, education and other socia1 activitie. As increasing demand of public education and public services Korean museums face new challenges. The objective of this paper is to exarnine museum' s education in terms of its foundation, elements, structures and to suggest a new kind of museum experience. Museum education can be defined as education(teaching and learning) occurs in a museum. 1t means a close and interdependable relation between museum and education. The museum provides not only a space for learning but it provides materials and text of education. As an exhibition designer Mclean defines “The exhibition space becomes the vessel in which objects, ideas and people are brought together and transformed," the museum is a space where learning and new experience can occur. The education becomes a part of museum experience. Definition of museum education being expansion of knowledge is exarnined in terms of suggested museum experience. Exhibition can be interpreted as a narration with symbols, codes, and hidden stories. Building a communication skill between exhibition and visitors is the foundation of education. Through proper communication, visitors can learn and experience the exhibition with fresh perspectives and their knowledge can expand beyond the given information. 1n order to solve a communication problem, the museum educators should focus on three elements--exhibition, visitors and motivation. It is not surprised to find out the 'visitor studies' became a complex acadernic discipline and has been exarnined its various aspects of visitors to have better comprehension. The museum education can be divided into teaching and learning. It has its foundation in educational philosophy. Teaching and learning are processes that visitors and educators go through to gain a better understanding of exhibition. The paper suggests a type of learning combining cognitive, affective and psycomotor education. It stands on the belief that three sequenced ac디 vities provide productive learning: seeing comes the first, then gaining information and understanding then creating artworks. The museum education is categorized into 5 groups: exhibition-oriented, exhibition-related, school text-related, interdisciplinary, and visitors with special needs. Exhibition-oriented education includes labels and interpretive activities of docent, exhibition-related includes appreciation and production. School text-related and interdisciplinary represents programs for school children. It is time to expand the range of audience and solve not only systematic problems but the real problems of providing a health programs for the visitors of special needs. It is only beginning of new and critical thinking for museum education. Korean museums face many problems including finance and lack of professional museums teachers who can create and manage good programs. Instead of importing success programs from abroad, Korean museums should exarnine current situation and today' s audience to provide healthy and well-thought out programs.
