National Archives of Scotland

The National Archives of Scotland in collaboration with other government agencies embarked on an e-learning initiative that would produce a electronic resource that would help children understand the history and events behind the Act of Union in 1707.

‘A Union for a’ that’ is a collaborative education project for Scottish schools marking the 300th anniversary of the Union of the Parliaments in 1707. The project is funded by the Scottish Government Education Department, Tourism, Culture and Sport.

A collaboration between The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland, the National Archives of Scotland, Historic Scotland, the National Galleries of Scotland, the National Library of Scotland, the Scottish Parliament, and the Law Society of Scotland, the project is designed to support A Curriculum for Excellence.

Moriarti were asked to design and produce an e-learning resource and support materials designed to support ‘A Curriculum for Excellence’, Scotland’s new curriculum that provides relevant, inspiring, and engaging education for every child and young person in Scotland.

This resource would take the form of an interactive resource that would contain text, images, pdf’s, audio and video to help children understand the history and events behind the Act of Union in 1707. A free copy of the resource would be provided to every primary and secondary school in Scotland.

Working closely with the National Archives of Scotland and The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland, Moriarti designed and produced an interactive e-learning DVD-Rom that contains a wealth of information to help children of all ages understand the Union of Parliaments. The resources include a digital booklet, downloadable teaching aides, audio and video as well as fun interactive games.

In addition to this, Moriarti produced a number of support materials including a website, exhibition panels and print materials to support the workshops and other events that were being run by the partnership of Government agencies.
