‘The University Campus as a Learning Resource in Humanities’ is a successful HEA-funded project in which BA students in Classical Civilisation and History are taught via the buildings, artworks, archives and other resources of the University of Roehampton’s campus in a ‘campus project’ research module.

This workshop is being held to support those who are interested in using their own campus as a learning resource. The one-day event will include:
- A short presentation on the Roehampton Campus Project
- A tour of the campus and one of its archives
- Mini-presentations on current practice demonstrating the active involvement of students in research into campus history, artworks, architecture and archives.
- An open forum for the discussion of the benefits, challenges, and opportunities in this form of teaching and learning.

Call for Papers: We invite contributions of 10-minute presentation on:
- How you are actively involving students in research into your campus.
- Ideas you have or activities you would like to undertake to involve students in this form of study.
We welcome contributions from lecturers involved in teaching history or classical civilisation, university archivists and curators of university museums.

If you would like to contribute, please send an abstract to Dr Sonya Nevin (sonya.nevin@roehampton.ac.uk) by Monday 20th April.
