New approaches to teaching history

The project The German-Polish relations in present and past are in the focus of this six-day project for students from Germany and Poland. The second main topic is the use of new media in exhibitions, museums and in (international) youth work on the example of the Krzyżowa-based exhibition "Courage and Reconciliation (http://odwagaipojednanie.pl). You will use your theoretical knowledge to work on contents for the interactive visitor's guide for the exhibition that will be available as a new tool for individual guests and project participants in Krzyżowa. This connection between theory and practice is an outstanding possibility for you to create new and easy access to scientifical topics for non-scientists and to make scientific knowledge accessible to the broad public. The basis for the practical workshops are inputs, workshops and discussions on the topics: • German-Polish relations and the process of reconciliation, • digitalization of museums and exhibitions, • methods of non-formal learning in the field of historical education • creation of content for multimedia guides and history apps.
