Bourhill, Taryn; Rancourt, Derrick – Papers on Postsecondary Learning and Teaching, 2020

Kelton, Molly L.; Saraniero, Patti – Journal of Museum Education, 2018
Museum partnerships can involve significant tensions, especially when these collaborations reach across institutions to blend disciplines such as art and mathematics.
