History and Approaches to Heritage Studies explores the historical development of cultural heritage theory and practice, as well as current issues in the field. It brings together archaeologists who are deeply engaged with a range of stakeholders in heritage management and training. Chapters contain instructive reflections on working with descendant communities, local residents, community partners, and students in a variety of settings. With a focus on pedagogy throughout, topics include the importance of critical thinking skills, how technology has transformed education, gender issues in archaeology, minorities in heritage careers, NAGPRA and ethics education, archaeology field schools, and e-learning. Contributors describe changing views of heritage, perspectives on disruptive technologies, and new interdisciplinary collaborations. The volume concludes with a discussion of what, how, and why archaeologists teach and how they might do better to clarify the field’s relevance to people today.Emphasizing the importance of heritage studies principles and active learning in archaeological education, this handbook and its companion, Pedagogy and Practice in Heritage Studies, provide tools to equip archaeologists and heritage professionals with collaborative, community-based, and activist approaches to the past.Contributors: Susan J.
