Programma

Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme
(Groups of students and staff jointly participate in an intensive blended learning and training programme).

This BIP Project concerns an interdisciplinary, blended training module with on-line and an on-site components, teaching students in an innovative way how to interpret, manage and design cultural heritage in the context of today’s main societal challenges as migration, inclusivity and sustainability. The BIP is innovative because it combines the following three components.

Challenge based learning: course content
The major innovation is that the module aims to contribute to a paradigm shift in education and practice on built cultural heritage. Instead of a traditional conservationist approach, protecting heritage against societal changes, it teaches that heritage can be designed and managed to contribute to societal challenges (Challenge based learning). Following the latest European and Global conventions and goals (e.g. Faro, Sustainable Development Goals of UN), innovative questions will be asked, such as: how can built heritage be designed and planned so as to increase social inclusivity and cohesion, or to make our landscapes more sustainable. In this way, we wish to make students aware of the UN sustainable Development Goals and of how a heritage approach can contribute to reach these goals. Linked to this is an innovative collaboration: the module brings together students in past-oriented disciplines (archaeology, heritage studies, conservation studies) with those in future-oriented disciplines (architecture, urban design, planning)

Modalità Erogazione

At the heart of the module is a one-week field school in Rome, which is the city of heritage per excellence. All students of the three participating institutions will take part in the field school. Through daily excursions and on-site group assignments and presentations (linking various nationalities and disciplines), they develop their own view of how ancient and recent heritage in the Eternal City have been ‘constructed’, redefined and appropriated. They also learn to challenge the ‘Eternity’ of Rome and develop insights and skills to transform and integrate heritage within a setting of urban dynamism and rapid transformations, and with a special eye for inclusivity and sustainability. Classical on-campus sessions will serve to provide the students with plenary lectures. The students prepare their participation in the field school in Rome in the four weeks preceding the school through on-line classes and assignments. In this preparatory phase each student will be based in her/his home university. The classes will be plenary on-line sessions (for instance virtually exploring the topography and heritage of Rome), as well as group sessions and will be held with the use of amongst others Zoom, Canvas and GIS/ Geographical Information Systems. The group sessions (again, in transnational and transdisciplinary teams), are meant to prepare the group design assignment of the field school and collect and classify data on heritage, inclusivity and sustainability in other contexts in Europe. In the final week of the module, following on the field school, the students finish and present their group assignments in online sessions, being based again at their home institutions

Modalità Frequenza

Attendance is mandatory for 75% of the course

Modalità Valutazione

Successful participation in the BIP will be certified by all three participating institutions, who commit themselves to recognize the BIP as a valid element of the respective curriculums (6 ects); They acknowledge the added value compared to the existing courses offered by them, in that the BIP brings: 1. a transdisciplinary component into the curriculums of the institutions, which in themselves are monodisciplinary; 2. A transnational character to the otherwise national education schemes; 3. A blended combination of a physical mobility and a virtual component into an otherwise Classical context of plenary on-campus classes.
