Intangible Cultural Heritage: Towards collaborative planning of educational interventions

In the i-Treasures project educational paths have been created collaboratively by a group of experts.The adoption of new technologies for education in the ICH field is a novelty.The i-Treasures project aims to integrate new technologies and tradition.Pedagogical planning allows to design, describe and re-use educational paths.Pedagogical plans are aimed at supporting ICH transmission. The paper discusses how to design innovative educational interventions in the field of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH). This field is peculiar, as it is characterized by the urgency to preserve and disseminate some of the most peculiar intangible artistic expressions, especially those at risk of disappearing; so far these cultural expressions have been passed down mainly through imitation and oral tradition, so now technologies can play a role in fostering their preservation and documentation. Drawing on the discussion held in recent years in the field of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL), the paper describes a web-based tool aimed to support the collaborative design and planning of innovative ICT-based learning/teaching activities in ICH education. While providing an overview of the main functionalities of such a tool, the paper solicits some reflections on how TEL approaches, techniques and tools can fruitfully be employed to sustain ICH education.
