Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research is expected to obtain two main results. The first one is that the curators TV (CTV), which delivers digital contents of curators’ talk, raises accessibility to museums by increasing contents. The second one is that a survey (questionnaire) of a large number of people is conducted and web-contents are improved through its analysis. More than a hundred recordings were done and sixty-five contents were shown on the CTV web site so that CTV could be enriched as a unique platform of outreach activities in the museums. According to the results of questionnaire (417 samples), more than eighty percent of people, who saw CTV, had willing to visit museums, and this proves the effects of CTV.
