Our Services
Selinda Research Associates' mission is to help museums and other informal learning organizations create effective experiences for their visitors. We do this through an informed and systematic integration of evaluation and research.
We ground our work in earlier research and evaluation studies, such as Deborah's model of what makes learning fun, collaborate with clients to define, collect, and interpret the data they need to improve their visitors' experiences, and engage in extended conversations with visitors, then analyze our findings using rigorous methods of qualitative research. We then report results in ways that clients can easily understand and apply.
