[MCN-L] Digital Needs Assessment

[Susana Bautista]

Does anyone have experience conducting an internal digital needs assessment at 
their museum? I'm starting from scratch here, with the end goal of creating a 
strategic digital plan for the museum, but I need to start with not only our 
current assets but also current (and projected) needs from staff. Any examples 
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Susana Bautista

[MCN-L] Advice on advanced degree for museum technology

[Susana Bautista]

Kristine: Here at the University of Southern California I'm working with 
someone at the Interactive Media Division in the Cinematic Arts School, a 
program that merges technology, the arts, and culture. I know they offer a 
Masters, but I'm not sure about a PhD. And they're very hands-on with regards 
to technology, some working with science museums. 
Good luck,
Susana

 Hi everyone, 
 
 Could anyone offer advice on an advanced degree that would
 helpful for
 working with emerging museum technology?? I've
 considered a Masters in
 Museum Studies but the curriculum seems too broad.?
 I'm a Registrar and
 I'm particularly interested in digital image standards,
 rotational
 photography, online databases, virtualization, etc.. We
 have IT staff at
 my current institution but I'd like to try to keep
 up.? I know enough to
 be dangerous, but that's about it!? 
 
 Is anyone aware of a program that merges technology and the
 arts or
 humanities?? Or is there a straight technology degree
 or certificate
 that you would recommend instead?? An online degree or
 one offered in
 Wisconsin would be particularly helpful.? 
 
 Thank you for your input.?
