Can Citizen Humanities Transform Collaborative Learning in Online History Education? – OU H890 Conference The rapid expansion of digital technologies has provided new and exciting opportunities to reshape history education in online learning environments. One such opportunity is the incorporation of Citizen Humanities into history programmes, where collective activities foster collaboration, knowledge production, a deeper understanding of how history is created and the chance for students to create communities of inquiry. At the same students will be able to develop essential ‘twenty-first century skills’ such as critical thinking, problem-solving, effective communication skills as well as playing an active part in the production of new knowledge through undertaking ‘real time’ research. Students consequently become practicing historians in training, and this gives social relevance to historical scholarship.

Next is Carol Beardmore talking about whether #CitizenHumanities can transform collaborative learning in online history education?
