The communication project danmarkshistorien.dk was not motivated by educational considerations, but by the desire to use the Internet to communicate Danish History to the Danish population as a whole. Along the way a number of students have, however, been involved in the project both during and outside the teaching and one of the successes has been the beneficial student activities that have been derived.
In general, the project danmarkshistorien.dk emphasises on involving the students in all contexts where this makes sense. Here are examples of student involvement:
The project has given the history degree programme a specific tool that can be used on a wide range of levels in relation to the students. By, as it were, possessing its own communication activities, the degree programme is able to offer the students something specific that they can become involved in and contribute to, which provides the opportunity of targeted activities both in and outside of the classroom.
