Abstract

With the emergence of the Internet, museums are beginning to create websites featuring virtual museums. The purpose of this study is to examine how technology is being used in physical and virtual museums based on the Burke Museum as an example. The results show the physical museum relies on traditional media to create an engaging environment, while the virtual museum uses mixed media formats on one interface to provide a virtual experience. These two settings differ in target audience, information sources, exhibit formats, and interactivity.
