Intervention 5.2 - Refresher courses 

The Museum of the Roman Ship in Comacchio. Training courses and awareness-raising seminars for teachers and cultural operators - Project managed by the LAG DELTA 2000  
This activity is strictly linked with the opening of the Museum of the Roman Ship in Comacchio. It aimed at informing teachers of all the schools in the Provinces of Ferrara and Ravenna, as well as local cultural operators - directors of museums, libraries, tourist guides, etc - of the opening of the Museum and its cultural and historical importance. The first step has been to provide a historical term of reference, defining periods preceding and following that of the Roman ship. Secondarily, particular attention was devoted to the Augustan Age and the historical context of the Roman ship. Findings and load of the ship were presented, and their symbolic values analysed. The lectures were followed by a visit to the Museum. Delta 2000 also prepared educational routes for the different users of the Museum. The seminar saw the participation of 31 people, including teachers of all school levels, cultural operators and tour guides.
