“…Also, well-written text descriptions can spark curiosity and encourage students to ask questions and engage in discussions. This active learning process can create a more meaningful and memorable educational experience (Yalovitsyna, Volokhova, & Korzun, 2019). Furthermore, text descriptions serve as starting points for students to explore and further research the significance of the artifact to the history and culture.…”

This study described how social studies preservice teachers learn local history and culture through museum visits. It employed a qualitative descriptive research design involving ten social studies preservice teachers selected through purposeful sampling. Data were collected through a written interview and analyzed using thematic analysis. Through museum visits, social studies preservice teachers learned the following: visual driven through images, relics and artifacts, and multimedia presentation; audio/oral driven through curator explanation and peer discussion; text driven through text description; and actual experience-driven through applying learning from exhibits, giving a point of view from the past, and wearing traditional attire. Preservice social studies teachers can learn about local history and culture by visiting museums. This study emphasizes the value of museums in preserving and promoting local heritage and culture, as well as how they can be a valuable resource for learning about local history and culture.

“…Visitors to heritage sites, far from being passive spectators, actively engage in the narratives presented within exhibitions. This active participation takes on heightened significance in the realm of contemporary history, where the living memory becomes a vital repository [216]. Individuals share personal experiences, weaving familial traditions, everyday practices, and unique perspectives on significant historical events.…”

Knowledge organization and development of better information retrieval techniques were of great importance from a very early time period in human history. The need has grown high for such systems with the advent of digitization and the web era. Computer systems and web have offered easier retrieval of information in almost no time. However, as the amount of data increased, these systems were not able to work well in terms of accuracy and precision of retrieval. Semantic Web concept was introduced to overcome the issue by converting the web of documents to a web of data. Semantic Web technologies makes data machine-understandable so that information retrieval can be more precise and accurate. The Cultural Heritage (CH) community, with the goal of preserving and dissemination of the historical information to people and society, is one of the first domains to adopt Semantic Web recommendations and technologies, which can provide interoperability between various organizations by creating a shared understanding in the community. The data in the CH domain differs widely with types and formats. Also, a lot of organizations and experts from various fields interact through different processes within this community. Due to the mentioned needs, the CH community employed Semantic Web technologies step by step along its evolution process for better knowledge management and a uniform understanding among the community. In this study, we present a comprehensive conceptual framework that spans cultural heritage, information modeling, and information retrieval. Our model addresses early solutions in knowledge organization systems, highlighting the evolution from classification systems and controlled vocabularies to the significance of metadata schemas. We delve into the limitations of traditional knowledge organization systems and the necessity of formal ontologies, particularly in the cultural heritage domain. The comparative analysis of CRM vs. EDM, ontology-based metadata interoperability, and ontology technologies elucidate our contributions to the field. This paper outlines the process from the initial steps of adopting Semantic Web technologies in the CH domain to the latest developments in CH information retrieval. In this paper, we also reviewed intelligent applications and services developed in the CH domain after establishing semantic data models and Knowledge Organization Systems. Finally, challenges and possible future research directions are discussed. The findings revealed that GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) are excellent and comprehensive sources of CH information. The CH community has put in a lot of time and effort to develop data models and knowledge organization tools; now it's time to use this valuable resource to construct smart applications that are still in their early phases. This could benefit the CH industry even more.

“…To select most relevant contents semantic techniques have been exploited both for annotate data with concepts of the domain knowledge and to dynamically profile the users. Semantic Web technology and ontology modeling methods are applied in [28] to construct advanced digital services, supporting the study and evolution of museum collections. An ontological model is used to collect and interlink information in the form of a semantic network and the information ranking is based on attribute and connection structure in the semantic network.…”

“…The International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) addresses interoperability problems, related to the delivery and presentation of multi-media contents, providing a technology layer for the uniform presentation of media contents and digital archives [13]. However, it lacks mechanisms for interactive storytelling that support the correct understanding and coherent fruition of delivered content, which are widely investigated in the field of smart-museums [28].…”

Agents Based Cyber-Physical Diffused Museums Over Web Interoperability Standards

The availability of interoperability standards allows using a uniform model for integrating technologies and designing collaborating applications with a shared understanding of the exchanged information. In this perspective, we propose here the design and development of an agent-based platform that uses an interoperability framework to build a diffused museum in a cyber-physical system, where intelligent agents deliver cultural content through innovative interaction models. In particular, agents' awareness, natural language understanding capability, and interaction ability are extended through the monitoring of user's interaction with the IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) standard and the integration with IIIF compliant technologies. The scalability of the proposed solution is evaluated stressing the platform with simulated workloads.
