educational displays

Informative museum panels

Educational displays are exhibits or arrangements designed to inform viewers about a subject—found in museums, schools, science centers, and public spaces.

They typically combine visual elements like diagrams, images, and objects with explanatory text: The zoo's educational displays explained each animal's habitat and diet.

The term also covers classroom bulletin boards and interactive kiosks.
