The “Wspólnota Polska” Association, under the substantive supervision of the SWP Institute of Continuing Education, invites upper-secondary school students to participate in a project co-financed by the Ministry of National Education.
The project includes organizing a scientific camp in Lithuania for exceptionally talented students with interests in the humanities and history, as well as on-site workshops at the Polonia House in Pułtusk, connected by webinars.
- 14 June–23 July 2016 recruitment of participants for the workshops and scientific camps
- 24–30 July 2016 on-site workshops in historical skills and modern information technologies, part I, Pułtusk
- 1 August–15 September 2016 webinars preparing participants for the scientific camp
- 16–23 September 2016 scientific camp in Vilnius
- 26 September–8 November 2016 webinars developing materials following the camp in Vilnius
- 10–13 November 2016 workshops in history and modern information technologies, part II, Pułtusk
- 15 November–31 December 2016 webinars preparing a scholarly publication of the collected materials in electronic form
During the project, the young participants will search for and develop historical material from the museum and archival resources of Vilnius, subjecting it to analysis and processing using the principles applied in the modern historian’s workshop.
The use of modern multimedia and communication tools will support participants’ interests in programming, building a multimedia platform, digitally processing the collected materials, and creating a scholarly publication in electronic form, available on the websites of the University of Wrocław and the “Wspólnota Polska” Association.
The publication prepared by the young participants will document the contemporary history of the region.
