Unearthing Quality: Assessing Archaeology Lessons by Educators

Summary

This is a poster submission presented at the 2025 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Teachers Pay Teachers is a leading online marketplace for educational resources, with over 4,000 materials about archaeology. Most of these lessons were created by professional teachers, not archaeologists. This study evaluates a sample of free archaeology lessons to determine their accuracy and quality. Additionally, we advocate for professional archaeologists to share their lessons on platforms like Teachers Pay Teachers, complementing traditional formats and enhancing accessibility for educators.
