A heritage museum is designing an accessible guided tour for visitors with a specific form of brain injury. These visitors have intact semantic memory (retaining excellent general knowledge of historical eras, scientific principles, and vocabulary). However, they have severe deficits in forming new episodic memories (such as remembering which exhibition rooms they have already walked through, where the café is located, or what the tour guide told them a few minutes ago).
Describe how the museum organizers could use this information to design an effective and supportive visitor experience for these individuals.
