This document Social Groups and Activities in .pdf explores the social groups and activities within the museum space. It is meant to be a starting point for future discussion on the social groups and activities associated with the MMI micro-engagement.
Favorite quote from brainstorming notes "The social goal is the most important, this is informal learning, people don't go to museums by themselves, it is mostly a social activity and this recording (technology) can expand this activity."
