  • IWM Digital Resource for Volunteers
    IWM Digital Resource for Volunteers An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by: Linda Baker Shintaro Clanton Andrew Gregory Rachel Plante Project advisors: VJ Manzo Jianyu Liang June 23, 2016 This report represents the work of one or more WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. ABSTRACT The Interaction Volunteers at Imperial War Museums London engage with visitors in the exhibits and discuss about certain artifacts. The communication of information among the Interaction Volunteer team, however, has been inefficient as the system relied on paper resources. Our IQP team surveyed volunteers and conducted a focus group to gather input about layout and features for a potential digital resource which the Interaction Volunteers could use in management of artifactual content and digital forms. This information was then used to design a website utilizing a content management system in order to make the communication of information more simple and efficient for the Interaction Volunteer team. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Our team would like to thank our advisors, Professors V.J. Manzo and Jianyu Liang, for their continued support and guidance in completing this project. We would especially like to thank Mr. Grant Rogers, Informal Learning and Engagement Manager at Imperial War Museums London, for sponsoring and providing insight for our project and for sharing his enthusiasm for the museum. In addition, we would like to extend our gratitude to the Learning and Engagement Department and Digital Design Department at Imperial War Museums London, for providing us the resources we needed to complete our project, and to the Volunteer Program at Imperial War Museums London for their advice and participation in our project.

The project is ambitious for a number of reasons – but in terms of this Business Plan, most importantly because it will provide a complete step change in the level of commercial activity onsite. Turnover will increase onsite fourfold to around £1m p.a. as a direct result of the project , and expenditure will increase by around a third. This Business Plan provides a detailed assessment of the forecast operational performance of Marble Hill House and Park under the project.
