As part of the DSI4.2 project, EuroClio and Europeana are offering a series of Webinars for advanced users of Historiana.
These webinars are meant to support more experienced users of Historiana to experiment with the eActivity builder and get some tips and tricks on how to create quality eLearning activities.
Each webinar will introduce the participants to the eActivity builder and explain in greater details the reasoning behind the creation of certain eLearning activities. It will also provide some insights on how to make the most out of the eActivity builder. In addition, each webinar will focus on a particular topic, using exemplar content from the Europeana Collections, and a critical thinking skill.
These webinars will take place on 9 December 2020, 17 February 2021, 21 April 2021 and 16 June 2021.
