About the Course
This course provides key resources and guidance for teachers and people interested in education and culture on why and how to integrate living heritage in their lessons and extracurricular activities in the school. Such lessons and activities aim to make learning more contextualized, relevant and engaging for students while they help raise awareness about the importance of safeguarding living heritage.
By the end of the course, the participant will:
- Understand the benefits of using ICH in school programmes and activities.
- Gain capacity to develop lessons or activities, with at least one lesson or activity developed as part of the course.
- Build synergy with other education programs such as Education for Sustainable Development, Global Citizenship Education or Social and Emotional Learning, etc.
- Identify opportunities to develop more lessons or activities in her/his school context.
Whoever you are — policymaker, school director, teacher, student, parent, heritage practitioner — you have a vital role to play in this process.
After finishing this online course, participants are invited to register for and attend one or both of the informative webinars. The webinars will provide you with opportunities to exchange information and ideas with curriculum developers, instructors, and fellow learners, and receive direct feedback from instructors on your newly developed lesson plan and activity.
