Rock Art of Southeast Asia and the World
11 May, 2022
This special self-paced course organised by the SEAMEO Regional Centre for Archaeology and Fine Arts brings you on a global survey of rock art around the world. You will learn about rock art from distinguished scholars and experts covering the regions of Southeast Asia, Greater Asia, Europe, Africa, the Americas, Australia and the Pacific – a virtual tour around the world!
The course will introduce participants to the variety of rock art traditions found throughout the world, and the importance of preserving, managing and conserving this unique heritage. This course is designed to be flexible and allows you to follow the video lectures, readings and quizzes at your own time. Certificates are given upon successful completion of the required assessments within the course duration.
Duration: Self-paced, about 4 hours/week
Course fee: THB 1,000 (approximately US$30)
Course Outline
The course is in English and the learning materials will be distributed via Google Classroom. You will need an email address, Internet access and the ability to use Google services to undertake this course. Every week, new lectures and course material will be uploaded on the Google Classroom platform. You are free to view and read them according to your schedule. Most lectures are under an hour long and accompanied by supplementary materials such as websites, videos and reading material. We estimate that you should set aside around 4 hours per week to cover the lectures and quizzes.
Along with each lecture, participants are expected to complete a quiz to assess their understanding of the week’s material. Because the course is designed to be asynchronous, the lectures and quizzes can be accessed at your own time. All participants will receive e-certificates, either a Certificate of Participation or Certificate of Completion. The Certificate of Completion is awarded to participants who complete every quiz with the minimum grade requirement before the end of the official course period (24 June 2022).
