Abstract

The present contribution aims at exploring how digital technologies can be fruitfully used in the field of Cultural Heritage for carrying out educational and awareness raising interventions. It is an attempt to underline the relevance of extending the potential of Educational Technology tools and methods to Cultural Heritage Education, two fields that have not largely been in touch so far. The paper aims at going beyond the idea that technology is a precious mean for offering closer/better view and easier access to cultural heritage artifacts; rather, by assuming a methodological perspective, the paper investigates the pedagogical impact that may derive from exploiting the potential of both technological tools and the related new educational models and approaches in the field of Cultural Heritage Education.
