How are archives utilized in education? Which archives are eventually used in the educational process and in which way? Can students understand and get acquainted with an archive’s creation, documentation, and processing? If so, what sort of an archive can this be? An archive of a library or an archive in the digital realm? Could a combination between these two aforementioned formats work? How can students develop their creative side through the archival conscience?
This workshop is addressed to secondary educators who would like to implement in their classes different interdisciplinary approaches – stemming from humanities to informatics, technology, and art – to new forms of archives and the students’ creative involvement in practices of appropriation and personal expression. The educators will be updated on the latest developments in the archival world, the process of transition to the digital world, as well as the program that is materialized as part of school curriculums (titled “Archives in Transit: From the World of Libraries to Artificial Intelligence”). Last but not least, they will create their own educational scripts, so as to get acquainted themselves with the procedure.
