| Research Abstract |
In this study I examined the roles museums play in the education of housing matters and their community.
The Following are seven main findings through the study.
1. For the last ten years has been increasing the number of the museums that are greatly concerned with the history, nature and social environment of a community, which enables us to use materials of a nuseum more easily. Fukagawa-Edo Museum is the most typical one.
2. Of various kinds of materials displayd in museums, the models as well as dioramas are the most useful, because we can survey them from all viewpoints. We can have a synthetic image of life through those models and dioramas furnished with household necessities.
3. Some museums have full-sized buildings, which also give a synthetic image of life.
4. Waste disposal facilities are as important as museums in that they, which conserve natural resources, give us much information on urban lives. However, they have no net work through which they can exchange information with other facilities.
5. In Sumida Ward and some other parts, there are several smaller museums which are deeply connected with their own communities and offer much information on the communities.
6. The children's museums in U.A.A., which I visited in order to compare with ours, have offered information on natural environments, communities, urban infrastructure and different cultures and shown the conservation and understanding of them as well.
7. Those children's museums have "hands-on" display system : so that we can get precise information through experiences.
