SUMMARY:From Nuremberg to The Hague
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with EuroClio\, Barry van Driel and a team of experts present a four-day youth workshop and seminar in the fascinating and picturesque Dutch political capital and City of International Peace\, The Hague. This unique workshop culminates with a visit to the International Criminal Court (ICC) and attendance at a current criminal trial. \nThough one of the key messages from the Holocaust was ‘Never again Auschwitz’\, genocide and crimes against humanity continue to plague our planet. From Nuremberg to The Hague challenges young people to take a critical look at how historically our world dealt with issues relating to justice\, injustice\, human rights and genocide in the past\, as well as how the world deals with these vital issues now. \nThe program concentrates on developments in international law\, with regard to genocide and crimes against humanity\, both directly after the Second World War as well as into the 21st century. It includes not only an in depth study of The Nuremberg Trials and the war in Bosnia but also introduces the new field of environmental crimes against humanity. \nWhat will the workshop focus on?\nThe workshop is run through seminars\, discussion\, group work and presentations. The participants in the program will have the invaluable experience to meet and discuss with eyewitnesses and victims who have had experience with these crimes first-hand. \nIn addition\, the students will do an MUN style simulation of the UN Security Council where\, representing council member countries\, they will debate if in fact the actions of an actual accused individual merit referral to the ICC. Here\, the issues are brought to life as the students use all the theory they have learned from the preceding days in an authentic and vital setting. \nThe last workshop day is spent on a visit to the Tribunal in The Hague. After an ICC-led orientation session followed by a Q&A\, the group will attend the actual trial for which they have been preparing during the program. The debriefing session which follows is designed to encourage students to revisit the assumptions and understandings with which they had started the workshop. We hope they will then leave the whole workshop experience with a better grasp on these complex issues. \nFacilitators\nBarry van Driel – Barry van Driel is President of the International Association of Intercultural Education (IAIE) and the Senior Editor in Chief of Intercultural Education. He has extensive experience as a consultant in the field of intercultural and inclusive education\, and has been involved in various working groups in Europe on education policies\, as well as in international projects on curriculum development and teacher training. \nShirleen Chin – Shirleen Chin is an international consultant in the field of environmental law\, international criminal law\, anti-corruption and corporate governance\, and is the founder of Green Transparency\, where she supports her clients within these fields. Shirleen has also been involved in educational projects\, in which she focused on teaching practices. \nMaja Nenadovic – Maja Nenadovic is an international consultant and educator focusing on intercultural dialogue. She is also a Board Member of the International Association of Intercultural Education and is one of the initiators of the Model International Criminal Court in the Western Balkans. \nCarolyn McNanie – Carolyn McNanie is an International Baccalaureate Examiner in History and most recently was an IB History teacher at the Rotterdam International Secondary School. She is experienced in Model United Nations school projects and running conferences. \nDetailed ProgramHOW TO APPLY\nThe seminar is intended for higher secondary school and university students at least 16 years of age – which is required to attend the program at the ICC. All participants must have a good knowledge of English. The number of participants is limited due to court restrictions. School and university groups are welcome\, but if you want to participate on an individual basis\, please introduce yourself through a letter of motivation sent to barry@iaie.org \nPractical Information\nThe first day of the seminar starts on Sunday or Monday\, and participants are expected to attend all four days. Study materials will include a guide to MUN simulations\, doing MUN research and a brief background to the debate in question.

SUMMARY:No Books Required: History Outside of the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:It is safe to assume that history educators like learning history\, want to know more\, and are acutely aware of how the past shapes not only the present\, but also popular culture today. Many books\, songs\, movies\, theatre plays\, games\, and other media that we encounter on a daily basis are in fact influenced by past events and historical interpretations. \nStudents did not always choose to learn history\, and often do not have the advantage of understanding these nuances. Simply put\, some students fail to see how history is all around them. \nIn this webinar series\, we aim to explore exactly this topic\, tackling the questions: \n• How can we help our students understand that history is all around them and past events have ramifications that we can see today? \n• How can we use innovative teaching strategies to engage our students and promote historical understanding? \nJoin us for a series of keynote lectures\, sharing sessions\, and active workshops to discuss the topic of history outside the classroom. \nStructure\nThe first two sessions of the webinar series\, on oral history and (board) games for history teaching\, are pre-recorded (please see below for more detail). They will be followed by the online course\, which will kick off in late August with a keynote lecture\, two active workshops\, and a final sharing session: \n\n31 August 2022 @17:00 (Amsterdam Time): Keynote Lecture on “History in and beyond the classroom: Practicing public history as project-based learning”\, hosted by Prof. Thomas Cauvin.\n\n\n“Conceptualized in the 1970s as history done outside the classroom\, public history offers opportunities to connect universities\, schools\, cultural institutions and a variety of public groups. In this talk\, I present how public history has been defined\, practiced\, and taught in different contexts. I argue that its project-based methodology\, its connection to present-day issues\, and its focus on public communication make public history an extremely useful approach to teach history.” \n\n\n07 September 2022 @17:00 (Amsterdam Time): Active Workshop on “History and Cultural Heritage”\, hosted by Lidija Suica.\n20 September 2022 @17:00 (Amsterdam Time): Active Workshop on “Theatre as a medium for History Education”\, hosted by Prof. Vera Cantoni. Please note that this session will take place on Tuesday\, as opposed to what already announced.\n28 September 2022 @17:00 (Amsterdam Time): Final sharing session on “Plans and Constraints”\, which will be hosted by Alice Modena and will see you\, the participants\, taking the floor.\n\n——— \nTHE FIRST ADDITIONAL TEACHING STRATEGY IS NOW ONLINE \nAs previously announced\, within this webinar series we will also post two pre-recorded strategies on our YouTube channel. As of today\, you will be able to find the first strategy in a brand new playlist called: “Teaching Strategies”. \nWe have decided to split our strategy on Oral History in three\, bite sized\, parts. Feel free to check the following videos out whenever most convenient for you: \n\nSome things to consider before using oral history with your students\nPreparing students to conduct oral history interviews\nAnalysing oral history interviews\n\nThe second strategy\, on teaching using Board Games\, will be published in September! \n\nDuring the course we will be sharing teaching strategies\, experiences\, and practical tips and trick to: (1) promote students’ understanding of the role of history education in changing the world and the complex relationship between times\, spaces\, and identities in a historical context; (2) raise their awareness of the connectedness between past and present through on-site learning\, and reflection on the teaching of history across and beyond Europe; (3) promote participants’ access to new partnerships; (4) open up access to innovative history education tools from across the world with a focus on learning history outside of the classroom. \nThe course will result in a resources booklet that will be shared with all active participants. \nMain goals\nJoin us for an online course exploring strategies and approaches to help students engage with the past also outside of the history lessons! \nREGISTER HERE!Webinar Programme\nComing soon!

SUMMARY:Teaching European History in the 21st Century: Final Conference
DESCRIPTION:About the Project\nTeaching European History in the 21st century is a three-year project that aims to respond to the needs of European Universities that are increasingly international by providing innovative didactic methods\, and the development of innovative teaching materials. The project aims to bring out these materials based on textual\, visual and audiovisual sources produced by international author teams. \nThe project is undertaken by Utrecht University\, together with six project partners: The Autonomous University of Madrid (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid – UAM); The Department of History at HU Berlin (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin); University of Sheffield; Charles University (CUNI\, Univerzita Karlova); and University of Lille (UDL). \nWithin this project\, here at EuroClio we have developed seven Source Collections on Historiana\, on the topics of Identities\, Societies\, Power and Citizenship\, Knowledge\, Economy\, Cultural Encounters\, and Living with Difference. At the Conference\, we will officially launch the Source Collections\, as well as a digital version of the Handbook “The European Experience“\, which will also be available on Historiana in a brand new part of the website! Join us in Brussels to be the first to see the new content! \nLearn more at: https://teh21.sites.uu.nl/ \nAbout the Final Conference\nComing to the Conference\, you will have a chance to first-hand witness the results of years of work of experts in the fields of European history\, innovative didactic methods\, and the development of innovative teaching materials from seven countries (Germany\, Spain\, Czech Republic\, Hungary\, the United Kingdom\, France\, and the Netherlands) on common European history based on textual\, visual and audiovisual sources. \nYou could also participate in hands-on workshops on using and testing these innovative materials and other approaches in the classroom.  The conference will also provide networking and professional development opportunities: you could listen to the professionals that closely work on innovative approaches to history education and engage in discussions about the most relevant problems and challenges in the field. \nStructure\nThe Conference will begin with an introduction to the educational materials\, followed by a round table discussion. Afterwards\, you can take part in two rounds of active workshops\, each consisting of: \n\nKeynote Lecture (the host and the topic will be announced soon!)\nHands-on workshop about how to use the best-practice guide\, which is based on the experiences of testing the outputs by international teacher teams in structured learning activities that form part of the TEH21 project.\nActive workshop on how to work with the source collection\, hosted by EuroClio. This is an online collection of selected primary sources in the original language and English translations\, clustered around important themes in European history. The primary sources mentioned and described in the textbook will be made available in the form of online source collections\, in their original form and in English translation.\nA discussion between the experts of House of European History and TEH21.\n\nMore information on the sessions will come soon! \n\nParticipation in the event is free of charge! \nCONFERENCE PROGRAMMERead MoreREGISTER

SUMMARY:The Road to Totalitarianism
DESCRIPTION:With the Russian invasion of Ukraine at the beginning of 2022\, Europe has been reminded that peace on the continent is more fragile than sometimes assumed. This war has increased Russia’s totalitarian aspects\, moving it closer to the Soviet Union Putin mourns. Yet\, totalitarianism nowadays is not just relevant in the case of Russia. Arguments for modern totalitarianism have further concerned states such as China\, but equally non-state actors such as Islamists and far-right groups. As such\, it has become evident that totalitarianism is not only a thing of the 20th century but continues to affect our present\, making the topic even more relevant for education. \nThe upcoming webinar series aims to discuss all the challenges of teaching totalitarianism\, to provide educators with the necessary skills and resources to approach this topic in class\, and to answer some key questions: \n\nHow do we teach about totalitarianism in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine? \nHow can we approach the subject of European memory in education? \nHow do we promote critical thinking among students in a time of dis- and misinformation?\n\nThe Design of the Webinar series\nThe series will focus on the sharing of effective approaches to inquiry-based learning when it comes to teaching about totalitarianism. The series will begin with a lecture by Adéla Gjuričová of the Czech Academy of Sciences\, a renowned expert on contemporary history. The keynote will be followed by two workshops hosted by lecturers and educators of the Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes: Vojtěch Ripka and Josef Řídký. During these sessions\, they will reflect on how historical literacy can be promoted using online tools to address the key topics of totalitarian dictatorships. Both the workshops combine hands-on experience and online activities (adding a bit of theory and experience the educational department of the institute has acquired during the last 15 years). The series will conclude with a final sharing and debriefing session hosted by Alice Modena (EuroClio). \nPlease note that\, as part of its wider thematic focus on totalitarianism\, EuroClio will also produce relevant content for its general outreach work\, including a recently released podcast episode on the subject. \nThe Programme at a Glance\nThe webinar series will consist of four online sessions\, taking place at 16:30- 18:30 Amsterdam time. \n\nKeynote Lecture: Theory of Totalitarianism and the Communist Dictatorship in Czechoslovakia– November 1\, 2022\, hosted by Adéla Gjuričová\, Czech Academy of Science\nActive Workshop: The Facade of the Totalitarian Regime– November 8\, 2022\, hosted by Vojtěch Ripka and Josef Řídký\, Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes\nActive Workshop: Institutions of Violence\, Violence of Institutions– November 22. 2022 hosted by Vojtěch Ripka and Josef Řídký\, Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes\nSharing and Networking Session: How do we teach about totalitarianism in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine?– December 6\, 2022\, moderated by Alice Modena\, EuroClio\n\nAims of the Training\nDuring the webinar series\, participants will: \n\nDiscuss the continuing importance of totalitarianism nowadays  \nLearn how to teach students to recognize totalitarian qualities in different case studies \nWork together on how to approach European memory in education\n\nExpected Outcomes\n\n An increased knowledge of teaching strategies regarding totalitarianism in the past and present\n A certificate of attendance and active participation\n A booklet containing resources and practices on teaching totalitarianism collected in the course of the webinar series\n\nREGISTER HERE!CONCEPT NOTE\nWant to know more about this webinar series?

SUMMARY:Engaging Educators to Use Online Tools: Online Self-Paced Course
DESCRIPTION:About the Course\nIn a world that revolves increasingly around competencies in media literacy\, educators need to be prepared to teach online creatively to supplement what they do in class.This online self-paced course will assist educators to create and share e-Learning Activities on Historiana. These activities are online tools that have been developed to allow students to improve their historical thinking skills in a variety of ways. The course’s goal is that participants will be challenged to create their own e-Learning Activities. \nThrough this course participants will: \n\nlearn what Historiana is\, how to add sources\, how to use the builder\, how to share e-Learning Activities\, and how to review answers.  The trainers will model how to use and make e-Learning Activities (creating a topic\, developing an inquiry question\, selecting sources\, choosing challenging tools\, designing instruction\, and evaluating the activities)\,\nimprove their digital competence with these online tools\, which they can now use more easily with their students\, and\ncreate e-Learning Activities that promote quality history or citizenship education on Historiana and to do so independently by the end of the course.\n\nNo previous experience with Historiana is needed to join the course! \nProgramme\nDuring the course\, participants will join a few live sessions to be introduced to the course\, share their work\, and receive feedback and tips. In-between these session\, participants will be able to work on the modules in their own time in a set time frame. The course will start at the end of February 2023 and finish at the end of May. \n\nLive Session I: Course Introduction: Monday\, February 27\, 16:30 – 18:30\nIntroductory Module\nModule I: Creating a Topic and Developing an Inquiry Question\nModule II: Choosing Sources\nModule III: Choosing Challenging Tools\nLive Session II: Wednesday\, March 29\, 16:30 – 17:30\nModule IV: Designing Instruction\nModule V: Evaluating the Activities\nLive Session III: Wednesday\, April 26\, 16:30 – 17:30\nFinal Live Session: Sharing Activities and Moving Forward\, May 31\, 16:30 – 18:30\n\nMeet the trainers\nGijs Mushin van Gaans\, MA.\, studied History and Religious Sciences at the Radboud University in Nijmegen.

SUMMARY:Bringing Digitised Heritage Closer to the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:An in person train the trainer and networking event \nEuroClio is proud to launch our first ever cross-sectoral networking and train the trainer event\, which will take place in The Hague on 3 and 4 March 2023. The event will bring together practising teachers and cultural heritage professionals\, to discuss the potential of digitised collections and their use in the classroom. We are looking for up to 7 Cultural Heritage Professionals and 3 teachers who wish to join us at the event!  \nAbout the event\nIn the past few years\, we have had the chance to meet with many teachers and cultural heritage professionals and reflect on how can we best tap into the educational potential of GLAM collections\, bringing them closer to the classroom. This is what we have learned (summarised to its core): \n\n\n\nTeachers are always searching for the perfect primary source that will help their students engage meaningfully with history\, and find most of these sources in digitised cultural heritage collections\, including via Historiana and Europeana;\nCultural heritage institutes wish to better understand what is the educational value of their collections\, and to bring it closer to teachers in a way that is easy to use.\n\n\n\nBuilding on this awareness\, and on the success of our first co-creation meetings with the Photoconsortium\, we have decided to launch a training and networking event where we will bring together teachers and cultural heritage professionals to mine existing GLAM collections\, creating high quality eLearning Activities and curated collections of primary sources that will be ready to be used in the classroom. \nThe Programme\nThe training will be hosted by Historiana Team Members Helen Snelson\, Bridget Martin\, and Francesco Scatigna\, and will include: \n\n\n\nSharing sessions\, in which participants will explore their needs and wishes when it comes to accessing and creating quality digital  learning materials\nActive workshops on how to create an eLearning Activity on Historiana and on what makes a high quality Source Collection\nCo-design sessions where teachers and cultural heritage professionals\, together\, will develop eLearning Activities and Source Collections using primary sources available in Europeana Collections or on already existing Historiana Partner Pages.\n\n\n\nConcrete results\nConcretely\, the training will result in: \n\n\n\nA new (draft) Historiana partner page with at least one eLearning Activity and Source Collection\, for all those participants who are new to the platform;\nAt least one new Source Collection and two new eLearning Activities\, for all those participants who already have a partner page on Historiana.\n\n\n\nConcept NoteTechnical information\n The Hague\, The Netherlands \n 3 and 4 March 2023 \nAll costs for participation will be covered by EuroClio \nWho can participate?\nWe expect to welcome up to 7 cultural heritage professionals and 3 teachers from all across Europe.

SUMMARY:29th Annual Conference- The Complexity of History: Unpacking the Past
DESCRIPTION:Registrations are now open!Unpacking the Past\nRecently the work of History Teachers’ Associations has increasingly focused on one theme: The complexity of history. \nIt highlights that history is complex because it is composed of multiple narratives and perspectives which are then interwoven together to create diverse and pluralistic societies composed of people with multilayered individual identities. Not only this: how we help develop the “necessary attitudes\, dispositions\, and ways of thinking in students to allow them to meaningfully engage with diverse perspectives from and about the past is (also) highly complex”. \nWhile multiperspectivity and the complexity of the past are not a new subject\, historiography and pedagogy have evolved in the last few years\, growing to encompass new methodologies and teaching strategies that can help us and our students meaningfully navigate this complexity.  \nIn Vilnius\, we will take stock of these new approaches and reflect on the key questions: \n\nhow is the complexity of history tackled around Europe and the world?\nhow can we best identify complex histories and help our students understand them?\n\nOur methodology focuses \nThis year\, we have decided to identify three methodological approaches to spotlight throughout the conference. The past can be unpacked in a variety of ways\, all suited for different classrooms\, contexts\, and historical events. During the Annual Conference\, you will be able to attend workshops and sessions that use the following methodological approaches: \n\nDialogue\, debate\, and discussion in the classroom\nTackling controversial topics\nQuestioning\n\nWhat can you expect\nOur annual conference is a professional development and training course that connects history and citizenship educators from all over Europe. The three-day event offers a comprehensive programme containing a keynote lecture\, active workshops\, plenary sessions and cultural activities. \nIn this conference and international training course you will learn more about how to help your students to meaningfully unpack the past. You will be challenged to think about what topics are controversial in your local context\, how to disagree respectfully in a classroom environment\, and how to model good questions to help your pupils become inquisitive learners. Through lectures\, panels\, workshops\, interactive sessions and on-site learning you will get more insights in the topic “the Complexity of History” in general and specifically in the current context of the Baltic region. You will be trained in ready-to-use strategies\, methods and materials you can apply in your own teaching. Next to this\, our Annual Conference grants the unique possibility of networking and peer learning with colleagues from all across Europe and beyond.  \nCosts and what they cover\nThis year\, we will offer an Early Bird fee\, a Regular fee\, and a Late fee for participation at the Annual Conference*.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEarly Bird (before 15 January)\nRegular Fee (before 6 April)\nLate Fee (before 15 April)\n\n\n\n\nDay Fee\n120€\n155€\n190€\n\n\nFull Conference Fee\n350€\n450€\n500€\n\n\nFull Conference Fee- Discounted\n310€\n350€\n400€\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUntil 15 January 2023\, you will be able to register to the conference with an Early Bird fee.

We are currently looking for up to 15 History Teachers’ Associations representatives who wish to join us at the event! \nAbout the event\nTo celebrate the new educational initiatives of the House\, we have decided to invite Bulletin authors of History Teachers’ Associations across Europe to a 1.5 day event\, where they will: (1) receive exclusive training on European History\, (2) contribute to the development of future educational resources by the House of European History\, (3) take part in a guided tour of the exhibitions at the museum with a specific focus on the role of multi-perspectivity\, (4) and discuss how to plan communication campaigns for their History Teachers’ Associations with a communication expert. \nTeachers and students have proved to be a core audience of the House of European History. When presenting the learning offer\, the learning team will focus on the permanent exhibition\, EU integration\, the learning material available for teachers on the HEH YouTube channel\, the virtual tour\, online teacher’s workshops and the future Digital toolbox. Indeed\, in 2022\, the learning team conducted an important front-end evaluation with a pool of 150 teachers from across the EU. The findings will be used to prepare the content of new educational material based on the needs and expectations of the teachers. For example\, the editors will have the possibility to test a specific workshop on democracy and the history of European integration in light of the upcoming European elections. \nThe programme\nParticipants can expect the programme to include\, among others\, the following elements: \n\nVisit to the permanent exhibition of the House of European History\nActive workshop on how to build a larger audience for History Teachers’ Associations\nActive workshop on the actual and future educational resources developed by the House of European History with a focus on European Integration\n\nAs participants will be asked to write an article for their national History Teachers’ Association on their experience during the training and networking event\, the programme will include also a work session during which participants will draft their own articles\, receiving feedback by communication experts invited by EuroClio and the House of European History. \nConcrete results\nWe expect that each participant will return home after the training with an increased knowledge and understanding of the educational potential of the permanent exhibition of the House of European History.

SUMMARY:Our 2023 webinar offer
DESCRIPTION:We are proud and happy to announce the calendar of our online events for 2023. Starting in May\, we will be hosting a total of twelve high-level keynote addresses on a variety of themes. \nIn particular\, we will host six lectures that will focus on pedagogy and teaching\, and six lectures focusing on content knowledge and historical events. \nWe will be creating dedicated event pages and registration links for all the webinars as soon as possible\, but we simply couldn’t hold our enthusiasm anymore! Below\, you can find the complete list of webinars\, with indicative dates when possible. \nWebinars to develop content knowledge\nJune 2023 – The experience of Women and Children during wartime\nAs part of our new partner project Rememchild\, we will host a panel discussion on the experience of women and children during the Spanish Civil War\, the Second World War\, and the 1990s Wars in the Western Balkans. Three experts on this topic will tell us more about how the events impacted those who were not fighting at the front\, and where we can find primary sources and testimonies on this. \nWe will host this webinar on Thursday 08 June at 16:30 (Amsterdam Time). Registrations will open soon! \nJune 2023 The Troubles and the Good Friday Agreement\n2023 marks 25 years from the signature of the Good Friday Agreement. During this webinar\, we will be talking with experts from Ireland\, discussing the events that led to the signature of the agreement and how the Troubles and the Agreement are remembered and taught today. \nWe will host this webinar on Tuesday 20 June at 16:30 (Amsterdam Time).  \nFall 2023 – An introduction to the History of Latin America\nIn the Fall\, we will host a mini-series of four sessions that will introduce us to the history of Latin America\, a topic often neglected by the history textbooks and thoroughly fascinating. Sessions will take place every month\, at 16:30 (Amsterdam Time). We hope that\, by spreading the sessions as further as possible in the fall\, you will be able to join all the sessions that you find appealing. In particular\, these are the sessions we foresee: \n\n19 September 2023 @16:30 Amsterdam Time: Pre-colonial civilisations and peoples of Latin America\n8 November 2023 @16:30 Amsterdam Time: Voices of the “New World”: Testimonies and commentaries of the Latin American conquest\n22 November 2023 @16:30 Amsterdam Time: Independence and Decolonisation in Latin America: The case of Paraguay\, 1800-1870\n23 November 2023 @16:30 Amsterdam Time: Wearing cultures: How to teach history with fashion \n14 December 2023 @16:30 Amsterdam Time: Old World\, New World: Postcolonial Politics\, Production\, and Innovation\n\nWe will be able to only scratch the surface on these topics\, and we hope that these sessions will mark the beginning of more sessions and projects about and with Latin America. \nWebinars to discuss teaching approaches and pedagogy\nMay 2023 – The use of Video Testimonies in the classroom\nTogether with the Zachor Foundation and the USC Shoah Memorial\, we will talk about the iWitness repository\, and discuss how to select video testimonies about the Second World War\, as well as how to use them in the classroom. This webinar will take place within the framework of our partner project Rememchild. We will host this webinar on Wednesday 24 May at 16:00 (Amsterdam Time). Register now! \nSummer 2023 – Fiction in the classroom\nGearing up towards the summer and some well-deserved rest time\, we will be focusing on beach reads and on how to bring the books (and movies) that our students are interested in to the classroom as a tool to promote history education. In particular\, we will be hosting two sessions: \n\n11 July 2023 17:00 – Historical fiction in the classroom\nPostponed to 2024 – Dystopian literature in the classroom \n\nSeptember 2023 – Worldbuilding – Postponed to date to be confirmed\nBack from the holidays\, we will turn our attention on how to help our pupils develop a strong sense of place and time. How can we help them visualise Medieval Germany\, or Ancient Greece\, or Renaissance France? How can we build an image of walking in the streets of Florence at the time of the Medici family? Or the royal court in Spain? We will borrow some techniques from Science-Fiction and Fantasy authors\, and discuss world building. \n02 November 2023 @16:30 Amsterdam Time – Teaching history at a time of planetary crisis\nFinally\, we will reflect on Climate Change and History\, and on how talking about the environment and climate change from an historical perspective can help us engage students that might be failing to see how the teaching and learning of history relates to their life and their own experiences. \n23 November 2023 – Wearing Cultures: How to teach history with fashion \nDo fashion heritage and the history of fashion and costumes have a space in the classroom? We have asked this question to our members in October of 2022\, and we will be discussing how to use fashion\, and in particular costume history as a tool to help students reflect on everyday life in the past. \n  \nHow were the topics selected?\nYou will notice that our calendar is quite eclectic in terms of content. This is because we have decided to base the selection of topics on the preferences expressed by our members and participants in the evaluation forms and surveys of webinar series held in 2022. We hope\, in this way\, to develop high quality content that is at the service of the EuroClio community. \nWould you like to recommend future topics? Let us know by emailing the EuroClio Secretariat! \nRecommend a Speaker!\nWe have started reaching out to the speakers for some of the sessions\, but are still researching potential speakers. Is there any name jumping to mind? Let us know by emailing the address trainer@euroclio.eu! \nHow to join?\nWe will develop dedicated event pages and registration links for each session. The webinars before the summer are free of charge. \nIn the fall\, participation will be free of charge for our Members. If you are not a EuroClio Member\, please consider joining us.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Use of Video Testimonies in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:How do we teach with testemonies?\nThe webinar will discuss details of teaching with testimony\, focusing on the USC Shoah Memorial’s archive of 55.000 testimonies with survivors and rescuers of genocidal violence. The focus will be on pedagogy and the IWitness educational platform. \nIWitness has been developed by the USC Shoah Foundation and provides access to a vast collection of audiovisual testimonies from survivors and witnesses of genocide and mass atrocities. The platform allows educators and students to engage with these testimonies in a dynamic and interactive way\, using them as a tool for learning and teaching about the experiences of those who lived through these events. IWitness provides a range of resources\, including curated activities and multimedia tools\, that enable users to explore the testimonies in depth and develop critical thinking and analytical skills. The platform is designed to be accessible and user-friendly\, with customizable features that allow educators to tailor the content to their specific teaching needs. Through IWitness\, the USC Shoah Foundation aims to promote empathy\, tolerance\, and understanding\, and to inspire future generations to become agents of positive social change. The IWitness platform is international and provides content –educational materials and curated clips in 17 languages. The webinar will also explore how testimony clips can be used in various disciplines for various age groups and will focus on specific\, testimony-based programs\, too. \nFor this webinar EuroClio is cooperating with the Zachor Foundation and the USC Shoah Foundation. The webinar will take place within the framework of our partner project Rememchild on 24 May 2023 at 16:00 CEST. \nParticipation in the webinar is free. \nFacilitators\nAndrea Szőnyi is the director of Hungarian educational NGO Zachor Foundation for Social Remembrance\, founded in 2007.  She is also the head of international education of the USC Shoah Foundation.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Troubles and the Good Friday Agreement
DESCRIPTION:Teaching the “Troubles” in Northern Ireland: Museums\, Oral History\, and Agnostic Memory\nProf. Chris Reynolds – NTU\nThis webinar takes the case of Northern Ireland to discuss the challenge facing history teachers in post-conflict societies that continue to experience ongoing division and tension in relation to the past. Beginning with a brief overview of the historical context leading to the conflict commonly described as the “Troubles”\, it will then outline how this period was experienced as well as its consequences. There then follows an examination of how peace was achieved with the 1998 Good Friday/ Belfast Agreement and how the past 25 years have seen great progress\, despite the many challenges that have had to be overcome…many of which remain to this day. One of the most urgent and sensitive of these challenges relates to how the legacy of the past can be handled to ensure that it is no longer a source of tension with the capacity to undermine the future sustainability of peace. A central element in this debate is how the conflict is taught in local schools\, and there will be a brief overview of how the teaching of the “Troubles” is handled in the contemporary education system in Northern Ireland. The webinar will then focus on a recent collaborative project with National Museums NI entitled Voices of ’68 that placed education at the core of its multi-facetted activities and suggests a potentially fruitful blueprint for how the legacy of the “Troubles” can be approached and taught more generally. The conclusion will provide other\, recent\, and ongoing examples of how the “Troubles” is being constructively and effectively taught\, and it will be argued that there are lessons for the general issue of managing the legacy of the past in Northern Ireland. The webinar aims to encourage attendees to consider the applicability of the approaches presented to other post-conflict societies and the potential benefits of teaching the Northern Irish conflict as a rich and pertinent case study within their own contexts. \nWe will host this webinar on Tuesday 20 June at 16:30 (Amsterdam Time).

SUMMARY:Webinar: Pre-colonial civilisations and people of Latin America
DESCRIPTION:About the topic\nSome historians point to the year 1492 as one or perhaps the major turning point in the history of humankind. Historical changes on many levels soon followed the initial voyages of Columbus\, leading to the globalised world that we now inhabit. This lecture will provide a detailed overview of the political\, economic\, social and cultural histories of Latin America prior to colonisation by European powers. These histories should provide greater understanding of the clashes and fusions that occurred in the centuries following the Columbian encounter\, which continue to influence life across the planet.\n\nOur host\nProf. Rick Warner has taught Latin American\, African and World History at Wabash College in the state of Indiana in the US\, for 25 years. He has worked on the national College Board Advanced Placement World History course as executive committee member and in the administration of exam evaluation. Prof. Warner has also served as on the Executive Council of the World History Association\, and served terms as Vice President and President of the WHA. In his first career he worked as a chef for 12. years\, and currently conducts research on the history of food.\n\n\nIn the wider context\nThis webinar will be the first of a series of four monthly sessions on the history of Latin America\, held in the fall of 2023. Other sessions in the series will cover:\n\n\nOctober 2023: Colonial empires of South America\n22 November 2023: Independence and Decolonisation in Latin America: The case of Paraguay\, 1800-1870\n14 December 2023: Old World\, New World: Postcolonial Politics\, Production\, and Innovation\n\nYou can register to these sessions individually for a fee of 10 EUR\, or register to the whole series for a fee of 30 EUR. \nParticipation to the webinar series is free of charge for our members.

SUMMARY:Teaching history at a time of planetary crisis
DESCRIPTION:About the session\nThe importance of teaching young people about our planetary crisis is hard to overstate. This is the defining existential challenge of our time and helping students to understand how we reached this point has relevance for the way we navigate our way out of it.  In this session\, Michael and Alison will draw on their work for UCL’s new Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability Education for which they have developed four professional development modules for teachers.  Two of these modules introduce teachers to the potential of history to contribute to young people’s understanding of the planetary crisis and two exemplify this potential in relation to substantive historical topics.  Their work is relevant at all age groups between 5-18 years.  In this workshop\, Michael and Alison will share this work and the scholarship that underpins it. \nAbout our hosts\nThe session will be hosted by Alison Kitson and Michael Riley\, UCL Institute of Education. \nParticipation to this webinar is free of charge\nREGISTER NOW!

SUMMARY:Teacher Workshop Seeking Justice: From Nuremberg to The Hague
DESCRIPTION:Our current world is a very complicated one. Young people are particularly attuned to issues of justice and injustice\, whether in their personal lives or in the world around them. This past year\, with the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent reports of gross violations of human rights\, the question becomes what can be done to bring the perpetrators to justice and what does ‘justice’ look like? Such events are also challenging for teachers who want to address these topics in their classrooms. \nProgramme\nThe International Association for Intercultural Education (IAIE) and EuroClio invite present and future teachers of secondary students to a special 2-day workshop in The Hague. During the workshop teachers will reflect and discuss how to address issues of international justice with their students. \nThe programme for the teacher workshop will follow\, on an abbreviated scale\, the youth programme also being offered. We will deal with how best to teach about topics such as definitions of justice and injustice\, the Nuremberg trials for history and context\, and the subsequent development of the International Criminal Court (ICC). We will discuss and develop outlines for other possible school-based activities\, and encourage sharing of ideas and experiences the participant educators have had when covering issues of international justice in their teachings. \nThe programme will also include a visit to the ICC and attendance at a current trial. Before the visit we will provide background to the accused and the crimes under discussion. \nDetails \nA 2-day teacher training workshops will be held in 2023 in The Hague: \n\nSunday and Monday\, November 5-6.\n\nRegistration will close on Monday 23 October\, 2023. \nThe fee for participation is 50 EUR per attendee. Lunch will be included. Travel to and from the Hague and any necessary accommodation are not included in the participation fee. Should you require a fellowship to contribute towards your travel and/or accommodation costs\, please get in touch with us and we will do our best to assist you. \nFind more information on the workshop and application through the buttons on the right. \nFacilitators\nBarry van Driel – Barry van Driel is President of the International Association of Intercultural Education (IAIE) and the Senior Editor in Chief of Intercultural Education.

In order to make the abstract subject of human rights accessible to young people\, the learning platform offers different materials for different types of learners. The platform offers activity plans\, exercises and timelines\, as well as audiovisual content such as short animation movies which will help young people learn about human rights\, diversity\, basic democratic values and the rule of law independently or with the help of an educator. With the innovative approach of small-scale learning modules\, this toolbox allows everyone to implement needs-tailored\, innovative and engaging educational workshops. The JustNow project is a strategic partnership between partner organisations from Germany (Kreisau-Initiative e. V.)\, the Netherlands (IAIE)\, Poland (Krzyzowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe) and Croatia (HERMES). \n \nApply Now!Programme\nEuroClio is also offering a 4-day workshop and seminar for young people 16+ taking place in the Hague.

SUMMARY:Voices of the “New World”: Testimonies and commentaries of the Latin American conquest
DESCRIPTION:About the topic\nWell-known historical texts\, such as the late 17th-century chronicles of the newly established viceroyalties of Mexico and Peru\, have remained the primary sources for establishing a long-lasting Eurocentric perspective regarding the representation of the Indigenous peoples across the Americas. This lecture will provide an overview of Latin America’s colonial period to illuminate diverse regional voices\, such as the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega\, that respond to the Spanish and Portuguese occupation of their lands. These histories should provide a better understanding of the societal tensions that emerged during the colonial period and that continue to shape the region’s economic\, political\, social\, and cultural realities.  \nOur Host\nThe webinar will be hosted by Sarah Chocano Barboza\, a second-year PhD student at the University of Toronto’s Department of Geography and Planning. Her research lies at the intersection of urban geographies\, intercultural education and Mapuche activism. This research looks to understand how Mapuche affective ties to educational spaces—through memories of the past and articulations of the future—shape Chilean urban landscapes. Sarah has also gained professional experience within the educational sector as a history department assistant\, and humanities tutor. Currently\, she hosts and produces El CafeciTO\, the podcast of the Latin American Studies program at the University of Toronto’s Spanish and Portuguese Department. \nIn the wider context\nThis webinar will be the second of a series of four monthly sessions on the history of Latin America\, held in the fall of 2023.

SUMMARY:Teaching a Long History of the American War in Vietnam: Bringing Women\, Minority\, and Refugee Voices into the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:In cooperation with the Choices Program at Brown University (Providence\, Rhode Island\, USA)\, we are pleased to invite to a webinar on teaching the Vietnam War. Open to all\, the webinar is specifically geared towards teaching the period in a European classroom. \nJoin the Choices Program at Brown University as we present the student readings\, lessons\, and videos in our curriculum unit The Vietnam War: Origins\, History\, and Legacies (forthcoming) as a model for applying multiperspectivity to the study of war. The session will highlight primary source quotes and lessons that prioritize the voices of women\, Black\, Latino\, and indigenous soldiers and resistors. We’ll also examine a lesson on the experiences of Vietnamese refugees. We’ll end with a discussion on how a “long history” approach can support students’ understanding of historical memory and historiography. \nThe objectives of the webinar are to: \n\nIntroduce the concept of “long history” when studying a particular war;\nConsider a framework for bringing underrepresented voices into the study of the war using the American War in Vietnam as an example;\nExamine how first person narratives can build empathy for an historical event that students might find distant and irrelevant to their lives today;\nDiscuss ways to use the student readings\, six lessons\, and short videos in the unit in various classroom settings.\n\nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Independence and Decolonisation in Latin America: The case of Paraguay\, 1800-1870
DESCRIPTION:About the topic\nMost of our history lessons about the origins of democratic practice and constitutional government come from our reflections about such experiments in the North Atlantic. These reflections currently entail triumphant stories and cautionary tales. But to gain a more comprehensive historical understanding of the democratic experiment on Earth\, we must broaden our panorama. We must consider the other historic epicenter of democratic experimentation in the world: Latin America. Doing so brings a host of additional triumphant stories and cautionary tales to share with students and to enrich our conversations about what it takes to build a democratic republic—in the nineteenth century\, when such projects were so new and fragile\, during the first great wave of global decolonization. In this session\, we take a closer look at how inhabitants in the South American territory of Paraguay navigated this wave and conducted their own tenuous experiment to build an independent republic.  \nOur host\nThe event will be hosted by Michael Huner\, Associate Professor of History at the Grand Valley State University. \nIn the wider context\nThis webinar will be the third of a series of four monthly sessions on the history of Latin America\, held in the fall of 2023. Other sessions in the series will cover:  \n\n19 September 2023: Pre-colonial civilisations and people of Latin America – the recording will be made available to EuroClio Members soon! \nOctober 2023: Colonial Empires in Latin America \n14 December 2023: Old World\, New World: Postcolonial Politics\, Production\, and Innovation\n\nYou can register to these sessions individually for a fee of 10 EUR\, or register to the whole series for a fee of 20 EUR.  \nParticipation to the webinar series is free of charge for our members.

SUMMARY:30th Annual Conference - (Be)longing: Confronting our memories
DESCRIPTION:What are the factors that make you feel like you belong somewhere or not? Whether it is a place\, a time\, a family\, a country\, a community\, or group of friends. This seemingly innocent question is key because it lies at the heart of some of the main societal questions of today. The reason is that the answers create in and out groups that divide and unite societies. People who belong seem to be entitled to more rights than those who don’t belong\, perhaps most clearly expressed by politicians who state that their own people should come first. They do so to appeal to the majority\, but at the expense of minorities (who come second at best). \nAt the same time\, it is also important for anyone to feel that you belong somewhere\, that you are part of something bigger. We\, people\, are social animals\, after all. \nKey questions\n\nWhat can we do to create a space where everyone feels welcome? Whether they are students in a classroom\, teachers at a conference\, or newcomers in a society?\nShould history education purposely be used for identity building? To promote a sense of belonging? Or is this instrumentalising history education?\nWhat influences what we remember\, and what we forget?\nWhat are the implications for history education\, and the use of testimonies.\n\nWhat’s on the programme?\nThere will be a mix of activities offered. Participants can choose to participate in parallel workshops\, focus group discussions\, and optional social and cultural activities (such as an intercultural night\, pub-quiz and museum visits). In additional there will be plenary workshops\, a keynote lecture\, a panel discussion\, school visits\, and a celebrative dinner\, which all conference participants can join. \nThe General Assembly of EuroClio (which is open to the public\, and also possible to follow online) will take place on Saturday afternoon. \nThe Conference will result in:\n\nThe continued professional development of the conference participants.\nStrengthened cross-border cooperation among teachers and teachers’ associations.\nA working paper based on the outcomes of the focus group discussions.\nA series of recorded sessions\, to be shared on EuroClio’s YouTube channel.\n\nStrands\nThere are three strands that run through the conference. \nHistory and Identity  \nThe way we remember the past\, privately\, publicly\, and collectively\, influences our identity\, how we see ourselves and how we see others. In this strand we will explore how this is used to promote for example nationalism and patriotism\, what role narratives play\, and what happens when people start to challenge them. \nOral History and Storytelling\nMemory is an important source of information. There are many initiatives to collect these memories and preserve them for future generations. In this strand\, we will explore the value and limitations of testimonies as a historical source. How can these be used effectively\, and how to respond when testimonies are contradicting the information that can be found in other sources. We will also look at the pros and cons of using oral history as a method for teaching and learning. \nCognitive and other biases\nIn the final strand\, we hope to get a better understanding of the biases that influence or skew the way we see the past. For example\, what is behind the tendency to put more emphasis on the things were proud of\, and the things that are done to us\, compared to the things we are not proud of\, and things that we feel are of no concern to us (the so-called mirror of pride and pain)? Other biases that we will address are: Nostalgia\, Confirmation bias\, Conformity bias\, Recall bias\, and Attribution bias. \n\nOpen registrations have closed\n \nShould you still wish to apply\, please reach out to us directly via email. \nAnnual Conference Programme\n\nPlace and date \nThe conference will take place in Sofia\, Bulgaria from Thursday 25 April 2024 to Saturday 27 April 2024. The main conference venue is Hotel Balkan. The conference is hosted by the Bulgarian History Teachers Association. \nCosts
