Information About

Interpretation




Interpretation is a term used in informal education settings to describe any communication process designed to reveal Meaning s and relationships of cultural and natural heritage through first hand involvement with an object, artifact, landscape or site. This is primarily known as Heritage Interpretation .

An interpretation can be the part of a presentation or portrayal of information altered in order to conform to a specific set of symbols. This may be a Spoken , Written , Pictorial , Mathematical , Sculptural , Cinematic , Geometric or any other form of language. The purpose of interpretation would normally be to increase the possibility of understanding, but sometimes, as in Propaganda or Brainwashing , the purpose may be to evade understanding and increase confusion.
