28 EXHIBIT DESIGNS FOR GIRLS’ ENGAGEMENT | Case Studies Case Studies
These case studies are meant to show you how the <strong>EDGE</strong> Design Attributes play out at exhibits that are highly engaging or not very engaging for girls. They also highlight the fact that not all design attributes will be used for all exhibits, and that when designing exhibits for better engaging girls, it is best to incorporate multiple attributes that make sense given the exhibit’s content and experience.
