Cultural heritage has a crucial role to play in education, and we want to bring this source of knowledge to every learner, educator and educational organisation. One of the ways that we do this is through Europeana’s Education MOOCs - or Massive Online Open Courses - which allow large numbers of participants to learn new skills and develop their knowledge through online teaching. The online course will explore the educational potential of digital cultural heritage to support teachers and educators to efficiently integrate it into their lessons and practices, regardless of the subject they teach. The final goal is to design engaging content for students, museumgoers and lifelong learners to prepare them as active and responsible citizens and to thrive.
