Schools
All codes of archaeological professional conduct stress the ethical imperative to pass on knowledge to others. In particular we feel a strong calling to help children to understand what we do, why we do it, and what they can learn from archaeology. To this end we offer tours of the Gault site (tours can be structured to specific teaching needs), classroom speakers and free copies of our movies: Gault: An Adventure in Time & Exploring the World’s Last Frontier: The Peopling of the Americas. If you would like to find out more about how we can help teach students about archaeology and our past please contact the Executive Director at: director@gaultschool.org.
Teachers
GSAR also offers free teachers guides for our films. Made by teachers for teachers.
