NICIE’s ‘sister’ website, ‘Facing the Past: Shaping the Future’, was launched at Cultra Manor, Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, on Wednesday, 24th October.
The ‘Facing the Past: Shaping the Future’ project, funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs, Dublin (DFAD) in 2011-12, has produced a unique website – www.facingthepastshapingthefuture.com – which provides easy internet access to a range of innovative resources and approaches which will assist schools in the commemoration of a decade of anniversaries 1912 -1922.
The website has been designed to support primary and post primary teachers across all schools to help pupils understand how their identity has been influenced and shaped and to appreciate the perspectives of others.
