Abstract or Description

This article proposes a new model of museum studies as critical praxis. I argue that rather than critiquing established practice, museum studies and associated academic fields need to take a more active approach and ‘do’ something. An argument that is evidenced through two case studies which test a design thinking based model of critical praxis pedagogy.
