Abstract

The Pielinen Museum has a rich collection of untagged authentic houses, structures, and objects to exhibit. Problems emerge when visitors attempt to establish meaningful connections between the myriad of unmarked exhibits. Additionally, negative attitude towards museums especially among younger generation is a known problem. The LieksaMystpervasive learning environment helps the visitor to discover temporal and thematic connections among exhibits. LieksaMyst's story-based role-playing game is aimed to attract and motivate particularly children and young adults.
