.the main argument• Troves of digitised cultural content and cultural

knowledge in CH institutions

• Contrary to the expectation from common sense,

teachers seem not to use them in their ICT programs

• Teachers, schools and the educational system have

many creative and innovative ICT initiatives

• Museums and other cultural heritage institutions are

not assimilating this know how when disseminating

their digital cultural objects offerings

• Review of such activities in Israel

• Possible integration? Non trivial!

When seeking good practices in the use of

digitised cultural objects in education

11

• There is a large amount of already

available digitised cultural content

• This digitised content is not embedded in

educational programs

• …even when the educational programs

are developed by cultural institutions
