Ideas of collaboration and cooperation are often implicit, taken-for-granted elements in archaeological models and theorizing. Overshadowed by a growing archaeological preoccupation with warfare, violence, conflict, and crisis, cooperative acts and collaborative dispositions appear to lack the same emotional resonance and changestimulating properties that attract archaeological attention. Nonetheless, many archaeological publications in 2016 directly take on notions of collaboration in thinking about the past and our roles as archaeologists and as citizens of the future. This review underscores the significance of thinking about collaboration and cooperation as ambiguous, ambivalent, multiscalar, and dynamic. At issue is not just the creation of community but also of getting things done and, of course, celebrating, revising, or reworking the intended or unintended consequences of those actions over the generations. [archaeology, collaboration, cooperation] RESUMEN Las ideas de colaboración y cooperación son a menudo elementos implícitos, que se dan por sentados en los modelos y teorización arqueológicos. Opacados por una creciente preocupación arqueológica por la guerra, la violencia, el conflicto, y la crisis, a los actos cooperativos y disposiciones colaborativas parecen faltarles la misma resonancia emocional y propiedades estimulantes de cambio que atraen la atención arqueológica. No obstante, muchas publicaciones arqueológicas en 2016 empiezan directamente a tratar las nociones de colaboración, reflexionando acerca del pasado y nuestros roles como arqueólogos y como ciudadanos del futuro. Esta revisión enfatiza la importancia de considerar la colaboración y cooperación como ambiguas, ambivalentes, de múltiples escalas, y dinámicas. En cuestión no sólo está la creación de comunidad, sino también el lograr que se hagan las cosas, y por supuesto, celebrar, revisar, o rehacer las consecuencias planeadas o no planeadas de esas acciones sobre generaciones.

This paper details findings from a collaborative research project that studied children learning to 3D print in a museum, and provides an overview of the study design to improve related future programs. We assessed young visitors' capacity to grasp the technical specificities of 3D printing, as well as their engagement with the cultural history of shoemaking through the museum's collection. Combining the museum's existing pedagogical resources with hands-on technology experiences designed by Semaphore researchers, this study enabled both researchers and museum education staff to evaluate the use of 3Ddriven curriculum and engagement materials designed for children visiting cultural heritage museums. This study raises critical questions regarding the practicality of deploying 3D media to engage young learners in museums, and this paper illuminates the challenges in developing models for children to put historical and contextual information into practice. quently, there is a scarcity of research that addresses how museums can fruitfully engage younger audiences in cultural programming through the use of emerging 3D technologies. This paper documents a collaboration between the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto, Canada, and researchers from the Semaphore Research Cluster on Inclusive Design in Mobile Hannah Turner (hannah_turner@sfu.ca) PhD, is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the School of Interactive Arts and Technology (SIAT) at Simon Fraser University (SFU).

“…Recently, however, other approaches were added, combining the two types of analyses (Hovers, 2009;Nigst, 2012;Scerri et al, 2016;Tostevin, 2012). At the same time, new technologies such as the use of 2D and 3D digital images of artifacts (Bretzke & Conard, 2012;Chac on et al, 2016;Dogand zić, Braun, & McPherron, 2015;Grosman, 2016), have opened new perspectives in the field of lithic analysis. However, the use of these very different methods has sometimes contributed to impeding communication between researchers as well as restricting comparisons between stone tool assemblages.…”
