Project Proponent: BSE Major in Social Studies

Description:

One of the most exciting things that have happened for students of history and the
general public in recent years is the creation of living history museums. In these
museums, people live and work the way they did in that area in the past, assuming the
roles of real settlers. Visitors to a living museum often get a more real sense of the time
by observing and interacting with the personnel than they would have by just viewing
displays of artifacts or homes. It has occurred to us that students might create a living
museum, on a much smaller scale of course, in which they would assume the roles of
historical characters.

This project is adhered by the following objectives:
1. To let the students express together their creativity and to promote camaraderie of
every class section

the "country's finest" thru designing and acting, from famous landmarks to its finest
delicacies.
3. The students should be part of the live museum in order to maximize the use of the
students.
4. There will be three (3) professors from the College of Education who will be judging the
Live Museum using the given criteria that will be explain to the students prior to the
judging period.
