Purpose. The modern learning process is impossible to imagine without the involvement of local lore knowledge. The article is devoted to summing up the results of the implementation of the project ‘Science to School’. The article summarizes the experience of integrating the object of archaeological heritage – the Novotroitsky necropolis, into the educational and tourist space of the Talmensky district of the Altai Region. In the process of implementing the project, a set of activities was carried out, including lectures, ‘live lessons’, master classes on the reconstruction of ceramics, clothing, jewelry, a scientific and practical conference, a photo exhibition, an expedition to the excavation sites, and the installation of commemorative signs. Results. The educational and methodological manual ‘Archaeology at School’ prepared within the framework of the project for teachers and students provides a short, illustrated glossary that gives an idea of the appearance and location of various archaeological sites in the Altai territory and educational and methodological developments applicable in the preparation of school research projects on archaeology. It contributes to the expansion of historical and local lore knowledge about the archaeology of the Altai territory and gives them an actual voice in the modern development of the region. In educational activities, the training manual is used as additional literature for the courses ‘Archaeological tourism’, ‘Archaeology of the Altai region’. Alongside the main and additional literature, the educational and methodological manual is recommended for students preparing final qualifying works in pedagogical archaeology. Conclusion. The authors come to the conclusion that a comprehensive museumification of the entire ensemble of the studied site should serve as a full-fledged prospective integration into the tourist space of the Novotroitsky necropolis area. The educational potential of an object of archaeological heritage can be revealed through the use of a meta-subject approach.

The Coastal Geopark of Viana do Castelo occupies 320 km2 of the Portuguese NW. It includes coastal and mountainous areas and distinct sociocultural and territorial contexts, and a unique and diverse set of archaeological sites. The present work intends to show how some of these sites have leisure and educational potential on their own, or when articulated with other geological resources. Some actions are highlighted and proposed for the valorisation of the archaeological heritage located inside the limits of the Geopark, evidencing what has already been done to know and protect this important (but fragile) set of past traces.

Archaeological sites are affected by changes due to a natural deterioration process over time. If not prevented, this may compromise the functionality of the cultural property, and in turn become pathological and result in degradation. Monitoring through innovative technologies paves the way towards an effective planned maintenance activity and therefore preventive conservation. The monitoring project of the Parco Archeologico del Colosseo was inspired by the desire to build a system of protection and conservation at the service of sustainable exploitation. Established by Ministerial Decree 12 January 2017 in art. 3, the park is an independent cultural site of the Ministry of Culture. It includes the central area of Rome—the Roman Forum, the Palatine, the Colosseum and the Domus Aurea—and has an extension of about 77 hectares, of which about 32 are buildings. With these objectives, the Parco Archeologico del Colosseo has launched a static and dynamic monitoring project consisting of six fundamental levels of activities. The project involves the creation of a multi-parameter system of permanent control of the entire archaeological area, with the associated indicators of the level of risk, for which it is necessary the combined use of innovative technologies.

Mobile technology is now part of the everyday life of teachers and students and thus tends to become an inseparable part of the educational activities. Teachers and students are increasingly using mobile technologies in teaching and learning. Therefore, it is purposeful to responsibly integrate technologies into the educational process. However, technical and pedagogical support is necessary in order to facilitate both teacher and students’ understanding of this educational potential. Besides, it is still very little known and there is very little evidence about the effectiveness of the application of these technologies in the teaching/learning process. This research aims to explore the perceptions of Romanian and Lithuanian teachers regarding the use of mobile technologies in education. Keywords: motivation to learn, mobile technology, preliminary study, science education, science teachers.

Los procesos de transformación del territorio en el Perú afectan la comprensión, protección y conservación de los sitios arqueológicos, desbordados por la intensidad y rapidez de los cambios. Sin embargo, los instrumentos de gestión patrimonial y territorial vigentes no facilitan espacios de integración del patrimonio arqueológico en las dinámicas territoriales actuales. El concepto de paisaje abre una oportunidad de alineación de sendas visiones sectoriales. En la región Lambayeque, en el norte del Perú, la elaboración de un diagnóstico territorial de su patrimonio arqueológico por el Ministerio de Cultura, permitiría ensayar una propuesta operativa del paisaje para la gestión de este patrimonio.Les processus de transformation du territoire au Pérou affectent la compréhension, la protection et la conservation des sites archéologiques, submergés par l’intensité et la vitesse des changements. Cependant, les instruments de gestion du patrimoine et du territoire ne fournissent pas d’espaces pour l’intégration du patrimoine archéologique dans les dynamiques territoriales actuelles. Le concept de paysage ouvre une opportunité d’aligner les visions sectorielles. Dans la région de Lambayeque, au nord du Pérou, l’élaboration d’un diagnostic territorial de son patrimoine archéologique par le ministère de la Culture, permettrait de tester une proposition de paysage opérationnelle pour la gestion de ce patrimoine.The understanding, protection and conservation of archaeological sites are overwhelmed by the strength and speed of territorial changes. However, heritage and territorial management tools do not integrate archaeological heritage into current territorial dynamics. The landscape concept is an opportunity to align both approaches. The Ministry of Culture of Peru has developed a territorial assessment of archaeological heritage in Lambayeque, North of Peru. It allows for a landscape operational approach to the heritage management.

Archaeological Heritage in the Context of Sustainable Development The concept of sustainable development is widely declared and used in contemporary scientific dis­course. Sustainability also refers to cultural and archaeological heritage. What is an important ele­ment of the contemporary conservation doctrine is a departure from the idea of protection of ar­chaeological heritage in favour of the rational management of such heritage, in accordance with the sustainable development rationale. It follows from the premise that, on the one hand, herit­age is a subject of protection, but, on the other hand, it constitutes potential that should be adapted to new conditions and used for cultural, social, and economic development. With the above-men­tioned concept as a starting point, the paper is aimed at analysing the role that archaeological her­itage resources can play in the context of sustainable development. As an example of good practic­es implementing the idea of sustainable development based on archaeological resources, I take and discuss archaeological tourism, because it aims to promote public interest in archaeology and the protection of archaeological sites.

The present work proposes the design of mathematical problems, which allow the adequate understanding of mathematical concepts of probability for its correct interpretation and later application in the resolution of probabilistic problems. For the development of this work we rely on the theory of didactic situations of Brousseau (1997) and Sadovsky (2005). We believe that new materials and didactic models of this type have great educational potential because they encourage the analysis and understanding of various probability problems (Panizza, 2003). Accurate communication between teachers and students in the approach, interpretation, resolution, and testing of probability problems is of vital importance. The software used for this purpose is the MATHEMATICA program, a tool that facilitates the writing of formulas and calculations, as well as the construction of graphs, through a friendly interface, facilitating the self-taught work of the student and encouraging the development of analysis skills and problem solving. We believe that these materials will contribute to the teaching and learning processes of probability at higher education levels.

The interest in archaeological heritage sites and the possibilities for the development of archaeological tourism have been growing in the world in recent decades. Monuments of archeology are a separate phenomenon in the cultural system and are considered as a separate phenomenon in the field of inheritance and preservation of cultural identity. Revenues from archaeological tourism can be used to preserve archaeological objects and for educational purposes, which actually contributes to the sustainability of archaeological sites, including environmental, social, cultural, political, economic and educational aspects. The need to study the spatial patterns of the distribution of archaeological sites has determined the active use of mapping methods. Geoinformation technologies allow integrating existing registers of archaeological sites and cartographic materials into a single structured geoinformation product. Numerous monuments of material culture, identified on the territory of the Southern Federal District, reflect the successive stages of the cultural and historical development of the macroregion from ancient times to the Middle Ages. Archaeological sites on the territory of the Southern Federal District are conventionally divided into funerary, settlement, and ritual-religious monuments and are of significant interest not only for archaeologists, but also for tourists. The aim of this work is the geoinformation identification of areas of archaeological tourism in the territory of the Southern Federal District. ArcGIS (ESRI) acts as the basic GIS- platform, the initial data are information from the Unified State Register of Cultural Heritage Sites (historical and cultural monuments) of the peoples of the Russian Federation. The territorial distribution of archaeological sites in the administrative-territorial units of the Southern Federal District reflects the degree of archaeological study of the territory and promising areas for the development of archaeological tourism.

Farming in a country like the Netherlands, which has a limited surface area, high land value and critical customers, is like walking a tightrope: a farmer is always the scapegoat when it comes to the societal consequences of the job. Archaeologists, for example, have problems with modern cultivation techniques, because they can demonstrably harm archaeological sites, yet the farming community is reluctant to accede to the archaeologists' requests, since it has many more (larger) issues to overcome. Predictive modelling as part of the development-led Dutch archaeology has not contributed to the desired mutual understanding. Yet there are signs of a growing willingness to listen to each other's needs, paralleled by developments in the environmental sector and the management of natural resources. Tentative projects to create a win-win situation for both farmers and archaeologists have been launched and even successfully carried out, but that is not enough. Archaeological heritage management requires permanent provisions, because the loss of information from the soil archive is irreversible. Attempts are being made to re-open the dialogue between farmers and archaeologists and bring about a more positive attitude on both sides. It is argued that severe actions are not effective in the Dutch polder.
