Museum Education Roundtable (MER)

Formed in 1969, the Museum Education Roundtable fosters professionalism among museum educators by encouraging leadership, scholarship and research in museum-based learning. MER provides leadership in professional development for a broad and diverse audience of museum practitioners and educators.

MER publishes the Journal of Museum Education ( JME), the only journal based in the United States that is devoted to the theory and practice of museum education. Written by museum and education professionals, JME articles explore innovations in the field of museum education, teaching strategies for use in museums and other informal learning environments, visitor research, and evaluation. Visit the MER website to learn more.
