Abstract

We explore the concepts of motivation and
motives in relation to creating engaging museum
exhibitions. Drawing on Cultural Historical
Activity Theory, we present a theoretical
conception of motivation and motives and their
relation to museum engagement. We propose an
approach for creating engagement in museums by
mediating between the everyday engagement of
visitors and the knowledge presented in exhibition
spaces. We present a case study of the interactive
RuneTable at Moesgård Museum to exemplify our approach and
to unfold our theoretical conceptions.
