The new Information and Communication technological advances in the digital age have introduced new perspectives on the use and role of the audiovisual archives. The need to adapt the traditional organizational systems of the audiovisual archives to the contemporary new reality provides the basis for further study and debate about the production, storage and dissemination of knowledge.

Our project intends to make the very construction of the audiovisual archives become a tool of knowledge available to generate training activities for the students. This is possible by improving the acquisition of key competencies related to the audiovisual theory, history, analysis and production.

The main idea of this project is to have an innovative type of audiovisual archive. It will be under continuous construction on the basis of the teaching strategies and the Students’ learning process
