Education - Instytut Pileckiego
As an Institute, we specialize in issues related to the history of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes of the 20th century. We support modern history education — we use historical reenactments, memoirs of victims of repression, and board games.
We invite young people to participate in history workshops, during which we work with primary sources and provide a behind-the-scenes look at the work of historians, Polish language teachers, and even archaeologists. Thanks to our collections of archives and records, we explore both the local and Polish Nation dimensions of general history. We teach an understanding of historical processes, foster social awareness, and give young people the freedom to interpret archival materials.
Here you can check out our history workshops — two of them take place at Sienna 82 (“Between the Lines” and “Post-war Dilemmas”), and the rest at Krakowskie Przedmieście 11.
We invite teachers and educators to download the educational materials we have carefully prepared to diversify and supplement the core curriculum. We also encourage you to participate in our educational projects, during which you can expand your network of contacts and refine your teaching methods.
