Values & Worth: an EBL approach to encountering and constructing collections
The project aims to create a reflective and investigative learning object based around the notions of 'Value' and 'Worth' which will be explored and examined in terms of what makes an object valuable (Determiners of Value); how an object is viewed in a collection (artefact, Art or commodity); who decides what is valuable (Professionals, academics, connoisseurs, consumers, general public) and finally what some of the problems might be with ascribing value. The project hopes to produce a template for enquiry that can be used in any collection visiting context.
