ABSTRACT
Future areas of work for the CBA and the CSA Education Committees will need to take into account the development of new technologies; for example, increasing the educational use of the Internet for archaeology. There will also be a need to be more socially aware by dealing with issues of social inclusion – expanding archaeological learning opportunities for economically disadvantaged groups, ethnic minorities and for those with disabilities, for instance. Tackling these issues may not be possible with existing resources, and will probably not be a matter for the CBA or the CSA alone. Finding new sources of funding and making links with wider networks will be a key part of any future success. A new CSA Education sub-group is very much in its infancy, but it is hoped it will act as a useful advisory body and help develop an education strategy within the CSA’s overall forward plan. The development of a strategy will help focus the CSA’s educational role to allow a proactive role to be taken in promoting archaeology and education in Scotland.
