He or she should make sure that the schools know what is going on at the museum and how they can
31、 make use of it, and that he or she knows about developments in the schools. Above all, it is his or her responsibility to find out what schools want, and to ensure that the museum does its best to meet those requirements. There needs to be a continuing dialogue between teachers and museum: the muse
32、um needs to know what the teachers are teaching; teachers need to learn how the museum could help, and what resources they could use.
