The document discusses the role of The National Archives in providing educational resources to schools. It aims to inspire students and support teachers by widening access to archival sources. The Archives is responsible for preserving and providing access to government records of the past and present. It encourages students to conduct original research using primary sources from museums, galleries, and archives. Teachers are also offered professional development opportunities to strengthen history teaching, including online courses and a master's program.

The document discusses the National Archives' work in education and outreach, including their responsibility to make government records accessible to all. It provides statistics on the Archives' education department staffing and budget as well as the number of students taught and website visitors. The Archives aims to support the curriculum through various taught sessions and resources that encourage students to engage in historical inquiry using primary sources.
Development of communicative properties of nature and landscape complexes.
The complicated economic situation the world found itself in during the second decade of the 21st century asks for urgent revision of social and economic relations in the modern society. Ac-tivity focus shall be shifted towards searching for flexible and fast-adaptable to changing condi-tions solutions, reasonable use of natural and labor resources. Staying optimistic and creating pos-itive communication is an important factor. Architecture and architectural education have good opportunities to act to this effect.
Since the mid-19th century the role of leaders in the society became decisive. Architecture formed those opportunities in response supported by the authorities and the society. A good example to this effect is construction of the Cooper Union School of Art and Architecture in New York. In 1859 Peter Cooper creating a new educational establishment - a center of public and political life of the country – industrialist and philanthropist started construction of a new college in the center of New York. The building stood aside for its gigantic Great Hall which could assembly up to 900 persons. It hosted lectures and social events. Among its outstanding participants were US prominent politicians, public figures and writers – Abraham Lincoln, Frederic Douglas, Henry James and Mark Twain. The Great Hall became instrumental in implementing ideas of democratic leadership; students acquired skills of public debates. Thanks to its “public character” the Cooper Union remains a most prestige college of arts in the world. The Cooper Union graduates - architects Daniel Libeskind, Toshiko Mori, Elizabeth Diller (Diller Scofidio + Renfro) carry on a tradition of public activity. Their mission in the modern world is to develop communication with society participating in the global dialogue.

Shan Robinson's presentation:
My talk will feature some of the outreach and promotional projects undertaken by the Library and Archive Service at Bangor University. These projects and activities fulfil our commitment to providing quality outreach work which opens doors between the University and the community at large. In the past few years we have completed a number of new and novel projects which have been designed to showcase the collections and offer original context in which to present the collections to the public. This led to Bangor Library and Archive Service shortlisted for a prestigious Times Higher Education Leadership and Management Award (THELMA) for their outreach and community engagement work in 2017. As well as bringing Town and Gown together, these projects also provide an opportunity for Bangor students to volunteer and win employability credits working alongside specialists form various agencies. From a University standpoint the aim is to encourage the public to be comfortable in the University setting and raise learning aspirations of individuals of all age.

Märten randal
New Zealand art includes traditional Māori art forms such as wood carving, tattooing (ta moko), weaving, and painting that originated from Polynesian styles. Traditional Māori art was highly spiritual and used in a pre-literate society. Styles varied regionally but featured designs in red, black, and white colors. Ta moko referred to the traditional art of Māori tattooing done with chisels that was mainly on the face and arms for men and lips and chins for women. While painting and carving (using wood, bone, and greenstone) were important art forms, European colonization introduced new styles and mediums in the 19th century. Contemporary New Zealand art

The document discusses the York: Gateway to History project which aimed to create a 21st century archive and local history service for York that engages all communities. The project worked with 44 community groups through meetings to understand their archive needs and interests. It was found that there was overwhelming support for the project but less demand for training and more interest in collaborative projects. Key lessons learned included listening to new ideas, being responsive, transparent, flexible, and using community spaces. The success of the project has driven ongoing community engagement and its approach is now being studied by a PhD student.

Through a glass, darkly – reflections upon digitisation
Digitisation is a process in which we seek to find a digital future from the material cultures and intellectual objects of the past. We seek to reflect upon these to gain new insights and possibly even fresh enlightenment. But as Paul the apostle stated in 1 Corinthians 13:12: “we see through a glass, darkly” and have an obscure or imperfect vision. Simon Tanner hopes in this keynote he will add light by sharing his reflections upon the benefits and value of digitization to research and scholarship. Further he will seek to provoke debate and discussion – can we see more clearly by using digitization as a means to investigate the past?
