The teacher should abdicate the |talking head| role and replace it with one that encourages and validates pupil ownership of knowledge. The purpose of this book is to share some practical ways in which a module on citizenship education may be taught to students in the middle and high school levels in Slovakia. It was written before the country joined the Eurozone Methodology. This module was made possible by a United States Department of Education grant to participate in a summer history and culture seminar in Slovakia. The seminar helped to familiarize the author with various aspects of life in Slovakia including history, economics, politics, culture, and education. The methodology consisted of collecting material from various workshops, lectures, documents and interviews during the seminar. The author decided to work on a project in which the national bank, the national currency, history, and cultural heritage could all be used to teach about citizenship in Slovakian schools. The result was the development of a teaching module using all of the previously mentioned material. One conclusion is that the teaching module on money, cultural heritage and citizenship education is a significant addition to the body of literature on teaching citizenship in the schools. The outcome is a description on how the module may be used by teachers in a middle or high school classroom to teach about citizenship education using Slovakian coins and bank notes. The author's recommendation is for the adaptation of this module using national currencies to teach about citizenship education in different countries. The first unit introduces the use of Slovakian banknotes and coins to teach about the country's cultural heritage. The second unit is a lesson on the functions and roles of the National Bank of Slovakia. The third unit is titled, |The Petition Letter| and is an exercise in which students debate the contents of a fictitious letter calling for the elimination of motifs and illustrations on banknotes and coins in Slovakia. The author provided notes, lesson plans, references, and teaching suggestions to aid the teacher.

Guidance on Inventory and Documentation of the Cultural Heritage

Guidance on Inventory and Documentation of the Cultural Heritage By:Ad hoc Group for Inventory and Documentation Within the Technical Co-operation and Consultancy Programme Published on 2009 by Council of Europe Improved heritage management and the inclusion of heritage in planning and sustainable development processes necessitate inventory and documentation. More than mere scientific tools recommended in international agreements, inventory and documentation play a strategic role. The complexity of the heritage items that now have to be inventoried and their interaction with our everyday living environment require the clear definition and harmonisation of practices at the European level. Through its work in the 1960s, the Council of Europe helped to lay the methodological bases for inventorying architectural, archaeological and movable heritage. The efforts to systematise the process came in answer to the broadening meaning of heritage, and today new considerations lead us to address s...

Enduring Records

Enduring Records By:Barbara A. Purdy Published on 2001 by Oxbow Books Limited The 27 papers in this volume have been developed from presentations made at an international wetlands archaeology conference held in Gainsville, Florida in December 1999. The theme of the conference was: The Significance of the Survival of Organic Materials from Archaeological Contexts. Individuals from seventeen countries spoke about shipwrecks, bog bodies, cenotes of sacrifice, art styles, perishable technologies, palynology, wetlands management, conservation methods, and updates on famous sites. Time periods ranged from the early Pleistocene to a few hundred years ago. As the international composition of the delegates (including a large number of North American scientists) indicates, wetland archaeology has emerged in recent years as a unique discipline facing unique difficulties which are encountered on both sides of the Atlantic.

Cultural Heritage in a Changing World

Cultural Heritage in a Changing World By:Karol Jan Borowiecki,Neil Forbes,Antonella Fresa Published on 2016-05-02 by Springer The central purpose of this collection of essays is to make a creative addition to the debates surrounding the cultural heritage domain. In the 21st century the world faces epochal changes which affect every part of society, including the arenas in which cultural heritage is made, held, collected, curated, exhibited, or simply exists. The book is about these changes; about the decentring of culture and cultural heritage away from institutional structures towards the individual; about the questions which the advent of digital technologies is demanding that we ask and answer in relation to how we understand, collect and make available Europe’s cultural heritage. Cultural heritage has enormous potential in terms of its contribution to improving the quality of life for people, understanding the past, assisting territorial cohesion, driving economic growth, opening u...
