| Inhalt | Cultural Heritage, both tangible and intangible, is receiving increased spotlight in the context of geopolitical conflicts and destruction of heritage, insufficiently funded institutions decreasing the quality of storage and research, and neglect due to lack of access and interest. Using the multidisciplinary background of the three lecturers, as well as their respective current PhD research on different aspects of Cultural Heritage (CH), this course aims to offer students of all Humanities and Social Science subjects an introduction into and a critical discourse on facets of heritage, the emerging field of Digital Cultural Heritage and the importance of proper standards and procedures for long-term preservation dictated by research goals. Session topics will range from «Making ‹Intangible Heritage› tangible» and «Cultural Heritage and Gaming» to practical case-studies. [The title refers to the evolution of Cultural Heritage research: 1.0 = physical preservation on-site 2.0 = documentary preservation, records off-site 3.0 = combined preservation digitally/online, long-term storage & access]. |
| Lernziele | By the end of the course, students – regardless of field and prior knowledge – will be able to answer the following questions and implement the thought processes behind them in their own research: What is Cultural Heritage? What are current approaches and standards? What is the relevance of high-quality CH research? What are the connections between heritage, culture and policy? What does the emergence of Digital Humanities (DH) and Cultural Heritage (CH) studies mean, especially for the Humanities and Social Sciences? What can individual students and researchers do to increase the visibility of and access to Cultural Heritage in their own fields and research projects? |

| Bemerkungen | Thanks to the lecturers’ active research, the course can benefit from connections to real-life examples of CH management. Towards the end of the semester, it will be possible to have a workshop session on Swiss wind band culture, regarding how to develop approaches for not well catalogued and edited cultural materials. |
