Description
In this webinar, teachers will learn how Project Zero’s (PZ) thinking routines can be powerfully applied to the study of monuments and memorials, enabling students to explore their deeper meanings and societal impacts. Through thinking routines, learners will be encouraged to consider multiple perspectives surrounding these structures, including the intentions of their creators, the historical context they represent, and how different groups may interpret them today. Participants in this session will see how this approach could help students to critically analyse monuments and memorials not just as physical objects, but as symbols of memory, power, and identity. Ultimately, the participants will see how Project Zero would foster thoughtful discussions on how societies choose to remember the past and how these structures influence historical narratives.
