description | This research is focused on studying the role that ethnological museums could play on the citizens’ scientific education for sustainability, since these museums are intended to show essential aspects of the life of human groups and the relationships established among them and their environment. They offer, therefore, an ideal opportunity to approach the local problems which affect a particular human group, as well as the global problems that humanity must face as a whole. For this purpose, the extent to which the contents of the ethnological museums incorporate socioenvironmental problems has been analysed. In the light of this analysis, a virtual museum has been designed, intended to contribute to citizen education for the sustainability transition, evaluating the results obtained by using this museum with both future teachers in training and students of secondary education. |
