Paper Abstract:      Clearly, giving consideration to online museum visitors’ cognitive differences challenges curators when planning their exhibits. There are interactive effects between the visitor’s cognitive preferences and the exhibit’s display format on the quality of the resulting human-computer interactions (HCI). The rapid growth of web-mediated technology extends the opportunity to fulfil exhibit facilitation. Although there is research that investigates individual cognitive differences for more traditional learning environments, the concept of online museum exhibits broadens the scope for further research. This paper discusses the interactive effects of cognitive preferences and exhibit display strategies, to highlight the need for consideration of these issues when planning the HCI involved in online exhibit design.
