Take a deep dive into how technology can be used to preserve history. 

How Digitization Can Preserve A Diverse History

Despite decades of efforts to make the US History curriculum in schools more diverse and inclusive, too many schools continue to teach a eurocentric history that ignores the lived experiences of students in the classroom. In this lesson, students will journey into digital history and cultural preservation. They will consider how this technology can diversify the study of U.S. history. Students will learn about the importance of diverse history curriculums and why preservation is important. We will explore why the lack of diverse historical curricula is a human rights issue and the different methods of cultural preservation. We will focus on answering why certain groups of people are not included in history, and how that affects communities and culture.
