Between 2022 and 2024, the Erasmus+ Teaching with Objects project aimed to encourage and support innovative approaches to object-based learning in higher education. More specifically, it aimed to collect, evaluate and share teaching methods and tools using objects from museums and university collections.
Led by six European partners and in close collaboration with members of the Universeum network (a European network of university heritage professionals), the aim was to build a platform of innovative tools and methods, and establish a sustainable network of practices encouraging teaching with objects from museums and university collections.
As coordinator, the Jardin des Sciences has organized an event in November 2024 to promote the results of the project, aimed at European professionals (teaching, conservation, education) and students from all disciplines interested in the subject. The event provided an opportunity to disseminate the report produced by the first European research project on the subject. It was also an opportunity to present the platform on which you are currently browsing, with a view to encouraging further contributions. Finally, it was an opportunity to test and evaluate different practices in practical workshops.
