Hi. I am Barry Joseph.
I am the Associate Director For Digital Learning, Youth Initiatives, at the American Museum of Natural History. This is where I talk about my adventures @AMNH and explore issues related to digital media and museum-based learning. I feature original interviews, thought pieces, and highlights from my work and those of my colleagues at the AMNH. Find me on Twitter (@MMMooshme).Sections
