Notice Title

Summative evaluation of Switched On exhibition and learning programme - AWARD

Notice Description

The Audience Research & Advocacy team is looking to appoint an audience research consultant to evaluate the following: 1. Switched On exhibition The National Science and Media Museum in Bradford will present Switched On, a temporary exhibition across Galleries 1 and 2, from end of July 2022 - January 2023. In Gallery 1, Switched On will take visitors on a journey from the first BBC radio broadcasts in 1922 to TV and the rise of streaming services. The exhibition will examine the industry through the pioneers linked with broadcasting innovations that have reflected and changed everyday life. Throughout Gallery 2, Switched On will also explore the future of broadcasting with exciting interactives and immersive experiences (see Appendix A), taking visitors on a journey of what media technologies and broadcasting could look like in the next 10 years. 2. Switched On learning programme (the 2 main 'tinkering' activities only) The Switched On exhibition will be accompanied by a learning programme, with two main 'tinkering' activities taking place most days over the summer holidays. The family tinkering sessions will be inspired by collections and encourage families to explore scientific thinking and creativity together. Families will be guided through different tinkering zones to explore materials and develop skills to create an object unique to them and their experience of the Switched On galleries. The learning outcomes for both the exhibition as well as the learning programme are available as Appendix C.
