This guide offers a practical tool to help archives and broadcasters with audiovisual (AV) collections to turn their cultural heritage assets into open educational resources. It offers a diverse array of real-world examples from AV cultural heritage institutions, and case studies which span a wide spectrum, showcasing creative solutions, best practices, and lessons learned.
This Practitioner’s guide is dedicated to audiovisual collections holders. It means that, if you are a large or a small institution and you have some sort of audiovisual material, this guide is for you.
This guide is one of the outcomes of the project Watching Videos like a Historian, an initiative that brings together history and media professionals across Europe. The project partners believe that quality education is vital in countering the eroded trust in traditional media. In this sense, media literacy, particularly with audiovisual content, is essential in history and citizenship education to foster critical thinking and source evaluation.
