"EDUTAINMENT"
(EDUCATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT ) ABOUT EDUTAINMENT "Successful Edutainment is discernible by the fact that learning becomes fun and teachers or speakers educate an audience in a manner which is both engaging and amusing"..... the term Edutainment is relatively new and became popular along with the developments of entertainment industries and programs in the late twentieth century, including amusement parks, television (shows, and computer games".......New World Encyclopedia The term and philosophy of Edutainment has an increasing significance in many aspects of our everyday lives; none more so than the subject matter, content, activities and environments created within the Visitor Attractions, Tourist Attractions and Entertainment sectors. In these sectors Edutainment offers varied and stimulating activities and Entertainment that often delivers desired degrees of incidental Educational value, serving to make the generally combined entertainment and educational process far more memorable, enjoyable, shared and inclusive. Even the formerly traditional and rather conservative museums sector is embracing the benefits of the Edutainment philosophy and delivery techniques..... "rather than just a fashionable euphemism – Edutainment has become a serious means to generate not only new interest in the environment, but also offers engender of repeat visitation like no other approach. With a sophisticated audience familiar with the environment of digital gaming, it was only a matter of time that entertainment played its part in the heritage and museum experience........from originally seen as an oddity and distraction from the serious business of informing and educating guests to museums and galleries, the entertainment sector has now proffered new tools in shaping the memories and passing on knowledge through the medium of Edutainment. Though still in its infancy, the merging of the skills needed to entertainment can now be applied to that needed to educate."...Museum + Heritage Advisor. Through Edutainment, individual and collective curiosity can be stimulated and if presented in varied and interesting ways, people will be more inclined to explore their natural curiosity, to interact and experience individual and collective Knowledge, Enjoyment and Entertainment. Technology now allows education to have an entertaining delivery, and, entertaining interaction. |
