Vakinhoudelijk

In this hands-on course, you and your interdisciplinary team will uncover the rich history of Utrecht and share your findings with the public. Combining historical, architectural and societal data, you will develop and design an innovative application for the city of Utrecht. In the process, you will learn how to cooperate across disciplinary borders, take charge of your own learning process and experimentally assess the added value of new media and ICT. The course will accumulate in presentations and, if feasible, interactive demos of the teams’ final prototypes.
Design prototypes of previous course iterations offer an opportunity for you to further expand upon. Likewise, the next iteration of the course will continue to work where you left off. Some examples of what has previously been created in the course are: In the Fall of 2020, the story of the Dom Square and the majestic Dom itself will be central. Depending on your team’s preferences and disciplinary knowledge you will zoom in on such aspects as the historical events, social dynamics, earth samples, linked data architecture and even game technology for visualizing your team’s findings. You will work with the best available data provided by the Utrecht Archives and other partners, and collaborate with scientists, data & heritage experts, programmers, and local history buffs.
For more information on the content of the course and its co-design approach, you can visit the online course manual and the course website. Experiences of former students can be found in the Living Pasts blog.
