How to create a museum visual story (Wales)

Monday 12 January, 10-11.30am

Do you want to create a visual story about your museum to help families and other visitors plan their visits, but don’t know where to start?

About this training

In this session, SEND in Museums* Consultant Sam Bowen will guide you through how to create visual stories, drawing on her own professional museum learning knowledge and lived experience as a parent of a child with additional learning needs.

A visual story is a photo document supported by limited but clear explanatory text. By including a visual story on your website, you can help a range of visitors, including families, plan their museum visits.

Sam explains, “Visual stories act as both a way-finding tool and a reassurance, as they help eliminate the unknown of visiting somewhere new. For many people with neurodivergence or high levels of anxiety, visual stories can be very helpful in removing the fear factor of entering an unfamiliar place.”

This session will help you to:

· find out why visual stories are important for a range of families to help plan their visits,

· learn how to create a visual story and how to present it on a website,

· think about how to test a visual story with families.

Take a look at the full schedule.

This training event will be delivered virtually on Zoom over one and a half hours. This session will be delivered in English with bilingual slides, with the option to provide a Welsh language interpreter.

Generously supported by the Welsh Government.

*SEND stands for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities – this is the acronym used in England and is equivalent to ALN in Wales.

Who should attend?

This training is aimed at staff at museums, galleries and heritage sites who are interested in making their organisations more welcoming to families with Additional Learning Needs (ALN). This training webinar is for staff and volunteers from Welsh museums only.

Sut i greu stori weledol mewn amgueddfa

Dydd Llun 12 Ionawr, 10-11.30am

Ydych chi eisiau creu stori weledol am eich amgueddfa i helpu teuluoedd ac ymwelwyr eraill i gynllunio eu hymweliadau, ond dydych chi ddim yn gwybod lle i gychwyn?

Gair am yr hyfforddiant hwn

Yn y sesiwn hwn, bydd Ymgynghorydd SEND in Museums* Sam Bowen yn eich tywys chi drwy’r broses o greu straeon gweledol, gan ddefnyddio ei gwybodaeth broffesiynol ei hun am ddysgu mewn amgueddfeydd a’i phrofiad byw fel rhiant i blentyn sydd ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol.

Mae stori weledol yn ddogfen luniau wedi ei chefnogi gan destun esboniadol cyfyngedig ond clir. Trwy gynnwys stori weledol ar eich gwefan, gallwch helpu amrywiaeth o ymwelwyr, yn cynnwys teuluoedd, i gynllunio eu hymweliadau ag amgueddfeydd.

Meddai Sam, “Mae straeon gweledol yn gweithio fel cyfrwng i ddangos y ffordd a hefyd i dawelu meddyliau pobl, am eu bod yn helpu i gael gwared â’r teimlad ansicr hwnnw wrth ymweld â rhywle newydd. I lawer o bobl gyda niwroddargyfeiredd neu lefelau uchel o bryder, gall straeon gweledol fod yn hynod o ddefnyddiol i ddileu’r ofn o fynd i mewn i le anghyfarwydd.”

Bydd y sesiwn hon yn eich helpu i:

· ddarganfod pam mae straeon gweledol yn bwysig i amrywiaeth o deuluoedd i’w helpu i gynllunio eu hymweliadau,

· ddysgu sut i greu stori weledol a sut i’w chyflwyno ar wefan,

· feddwl sut i brofi stori weledol gyda theuluoedd.
