220264 BIP: Re-shaping States, Identities and Cultures: Dynamic History Teaching and Learning in Border Regions (S) (SoSe 2025)

The aim of the course is to introduce students to current trends in teaching and learning in the field of history education at lower and upper levels of the education system. Through international collaboration, participants will gain, exchange and critically reflect on diverse experiences of teaching and learning within the field of history, which will be of benefit in their future careers as scholars, teachers or education workers. It will also help them become aware of the influences that shape their own identity and historical consciousness.
The course will be based on the sharing of different teaching and learning topics, methods, forms and approaches associated with the themes of borders, bordering, borderlands and border regions. By crossing geographical, mental, symbolic, and bodily boundaries, the project fosters the understanding and critical reflection of traditional historical narratives and collective identities, such as state, national, ethnic, class or gender, both among the course participants and their future students, listeners and readers. The lessons will take place not only in real but also in virtual environments, thus developing digital competences in the participants.
