“…The implications of the research suggest a necessary reinforcement in the domain of relations between heritage education and heritage protection practices. By undermining the current interdisciplinary character of heritage management and architecture conservation [70,71], the university education lacks in a practical perspective on the matter. The existing need for acquiring competences and skills to participate in the preservation of cultural heritage various institutions, public agencies, NGOs, but particularly Universities should make commitment to training and raising public awareness, especially among youth [72].…”

Sustainability of Cultural Memory: Youth Perspectives on Yugoslav World War Two Memorials

The noticeable urgent need for the preservation of collective and cultural memory in Europe, coupled with a fear of loss of important aspects of heritage, indicates the importance of educating the youth who will become future policymakers in the field. Analyses of the survey conducted through this research show the current perspective of youth on the typology of World War II memorials on the territories of the former republics, now independent states, of SFR Yugoslavia in Southeast Europe. Targeting architecture and civil engineering students as a specific youth group who are directly involved in learning about the built memorial structures, as well as the phenomenological background of space, creation of place and memories, resulted in a qualitative observation of the group’s understanding and judgement of the topic. This article investigates the level of knowledge and emotional response to memorial heritage within the target group. It addresses relevant issues of age, gender, level of study, and respondents’ backgrounds, demonstrating the existence of an initial interest in memorial heritage among the architecture-oriented youth. With an additional focus on a possible active role in heritage preservation and future placement, the research indicates a segment in the youth’s comprehension of valuable memorial heritage that needs to be improved.

“…Through more than twenty years of research in heritage conservation and heritage education (Lobovikov--Katz 2000;Lobovikov--Katz et al 2018), as well as of educating students and young experts from diverse areas of expertise in a wide spectrum of visual subjects, including descriptive geometry, perspective, freehand drawing and painting in different techniques, I have noticed that the maximum effect of the teaching--learning process can best be reached when students are introduced to the entire complex of visual disciplines. This inclusive approach to teaching these disciplines allows deeper understanding of different subjects and of their inter--relationship, and is a time saving learning experience through teaching shortcuts.…”

Modern Conservation of Cultural Heritage (CCH) is an interdisciplinary field, comprising arts, crafts, architecture, humanities, IT (Information Technology) and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). Several decades of extended research have shown the importance of spatial skills and spatial literacy for success in STEM. A major part of cultural heritage is visual, and three-dimensional. A sufficient level of spatial understanding and spatial skills is needed to understand, study and preserve cultural heritage. Visualization is especially helpful in teaching and learning the interdisciplinary CCH. However, the necessity of developing spatial visual literacy, and acquisition of relevant theoretical knowledge by experts and educators in CCH has not yet been commonly accepted. This paper outlines an innovative Methodology for developing Spatial Visual Literacy (MSVL) - a crucial tool for CCH and heritage education, - and selected perspectives of its feasibility and applicability to teacher training and also wider interdisciplinary uses. The paper addresses selected lessons from application of some elements of the Methodology as part of previous research and educational scenarios for different objectives and target audiences, from high-school, undergraduate, PhD students, to experts from different areas of expertise within the CCH, to facilitate its uses for teacher training in heritage education. La Conservación del Patrimonio Cultural (CCH) es un campo interdisciplinario, que comprende artes, artesanía, arquitectura, humanidades, TICs (Tecnología de la información) y STEM (Ciencia, Tecnología, Ingeniería, Matemáticas). Varias décadas de investigación han demostrado la importancia tanto de de las habilidades espaciales, como de la alfabetización espacial para el éxito en STEM. Una parte importante del patrimonio cultural es visual y tridimensional. Se necesita un nivel suficiente de comprensión espacial, así como habilidades espaciales para poder comprender, estudiar y preservar el patrimonio cultural. La visualización, es especialmente útil para enseñar y aprender el patrimonio desde un punto de vista interdisciplinar. Sin embargo, aún no se ha aceptado por parte de expertos y educadores en patrimonnio la necesidad de desarrollar la alfabetización visual espacial y la adquisición de conocimientos teóricos relevantes sobre la misma. Este trabajo presenta una metodología innovadora para desarrollar la alfabetización visual espacial (MSVL, por sus siglas en inglés), una herramienta crucial para la conservación y la educación del patrimonio, y perspectivas seleccionadas de su factibilidad y aplicabilidad a la capacitación docente, así como usos interdisciplinarios más amplios. El documento aborda una selección de ejemplos de aplicación de algunos elementos de la Metodología como parte de investigaciones previas y escenarios educativos con diferentes objetivos y audiencias distintas, desde estudiantes de secundaria, bachillerato o doctorado, hasta expertos de diferentes áreas de experiencia dentro de la conservación del patrimonio, buscando facilitar su uso en la formación docente en educación patrimonial.

“…The preservation of historic buildings with a pronounced heritage character constitutes a major challenge. It must therefore be approached from different perspectives (Lobovikov-Katz et al, 2018). Today, the integration of all such disciplines finds a fundamental partner in digitization, and its use is highly encouraged at the governmental level (European Commission, 2019.…”

Non-destructive testing (NDT) for the diagnosis of heritage buildings has proved to be one of the most sustainable approaches in the field of preventive conservation. Nevertheless, the comprehensive management of NDT information is complex, often resulting in a poorly optimized use of the data. This contribution aims to propose a method for integrating NDT data in a standardized way into simplified digital information models, produced using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). This method is applied to the plasterwork located in the Courtyard of the Maidens, which are elements with an enormous historic-artistic value in the Royal Alcazar of Seville (Spain), a significant UNESCO monument. For this purpose, a multi-scale web GIS-based model has integrated the NDT information from the plasterworks, such as ambient conditions, damage mapping, C-Shore Hardness, Superficial Humidity, Infrared thermography (IRT), Digital Image Processing (DIP) and Ground Penetration Radar (GPR). The combined georeferencing of the data from the various measurements and their simultaneous visualization has enabled the detection of vulnerable areas in the complex. The results are easily accessible for managers, and additionally show the analytical potential of the research approach, thereby allowing a quick diagnosis and hierarchization of tasks.
