Although there are many tourism guidance departments at Turkish universities, there is no museum guidance course in the curriculum. However, in the light of new technological developments, lessons of museum guidance seem to be included in the curriculum of the Faculties of Tourism with enriched content such as Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality (VR). Pamukkale University Faculty of Tourism (SILVHER) has started pioneering work on this subject with an Erasmus + project (http://www.silvher.eu).

Prof. Naci Polat, Tourism Guidance Department, Innovative Tourism at Tourism Faculty of Pamukkale University, has attended the 4th International New Media Conference, which has been organized by the New Media Department of Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU) last 25-26 April 2019.
