For teachers

Introduce your students to archaeology!

Archaeology resources

ArkeoTopia regularly creates edutainment resources around archaeology, cultural heritage and science, accessible free of charge. These resources are linked to official programs and help students and teachers acquire investigation skills.

Some students in your class are not interested in reading!
Show them Fairies against facts, rom reading to drama, a fun-educational short film that lets them see that reading is not an isolated act but can be practiced with others. While improving their ability to read, your students will also learn about scientific culture and its language, through archaeology.

Also discover our reviews of children’s books, interviews with people involved in education and archaeology as well as the latest archaeological news on our social networks, not to mention our critical bibliography for educational uses.

We can provide cultural and scientific events for in-person or remote learning

ArkaeoKids - Science Workshop on Egyptian goldsmithing How can you motivate your students in science and history lessons? If you don’t feel very comfortable with the scientific approach and the teaching of science in general, try the activities that we offer. These sessions can be in-person or remote (your class must have an Internet connection and a projection screen).

ArkaeoKids - Animation scientifique sur la métallurgie celte We also offer guided tours with the ArkaeOdyssey which will take you off the beaten track to discover places rich in history and full of stories. Although the in-person visits are mainly in Paris and can be arranged, on demand, for a student class, we can also carry out remote visits. We have great expertise in organising virtual meetings using comments, photos, videos, deciphering and interactive exchanges. Some of our ArkaeOdyssey in museums can be the subject of a virtual visit. Discover our ArkaeOdyssey:

How to become an archaeologist?

This question comes up frequently. In addition to receiving under certain conditions interns from middle school, we intervene face-to-face or remotely in primary and secondary schools that want to introduce people to heritage professions including that of archaeologist. This is also why, in its training resources, ArkeoTopia offers some guidelines through our article ArkeoTopia – a guidebook for your studies and our resources on career guidance, with these latest articles:
