The CEIP Jardín de Arena has opened the exhibition Alcázar: A History That Teaches, A Future That Inspires, focused on the cultural legacy of Alcázar de San Juan. The exhibition aims to bring local history closer to the educational community, highlighting the connection between past and future. During the opening, the work La Guerra del Rey by Petrovici was presented, focusing on Spain's humanitarian efforts in World War I. The exhibition will remain open for several weeks.
Technology at the Service of Local Historical Legacy 🏛️
The exhibition integrates interactive panels and QR codes that link to digital archives of the municipality. Students can access georeferenced historical maps and 3D recreations of emblematic buildings in Alcázar. This approach allows for contrasting urban and social evolution, facilitating visual and practical learning. The use of digital resources aims to make heritage accessible to new generations, without relying on expensive touch screens, prioritizing downloadable content on mobile devices.
Petrovici Arrives at School, But Without War 🎨
The work La Guerra del Rey arrived at the school, though without bombs or trenches. The children discovered that Spain, being neutral, dedicated itself to humanitarian efforts while others were shooting at each other. Some asked if that included sending food instead of tanks, and the answer was yes. To no one's surprise, the most intense debate was not about the war, but about whether the soldiers carried tortilla sandwiches in the trenches.
