Increasing students’ awareness on cultural heritage through digital tools and NFE methods
European cultural heritage represents the collective history, traditions, and artistic achievements of generations, encompassing ancient monuments, literature, music, and more. Preserving this heritage is crucial for fostering identity, understanding our past, and guiding the future. It serves as an educational resource, offering insights into societal development, and drives economic growth through tourism and creative industries. Appreciating cultural heritage promotes unity and respect among diverse communities, crucial in the face of global challenges like climate change and cultural homogenization. Investing in cultural preservation ensures future generations can enjoy and learn from the rich legacy that has been passed down to us.
The i-SCHOOL project comes to contribute to this purpose by strengthening the teaching of cultural heritage through the use of digital tools and innovative teaching methods.
