Historical Preservation Unit

Unit Criterion A: Inquiring and Analyzing Summative

Challenge

History is valuable if stored, preserved and prepared for generation to come. We are 
at risk of oblivion if our past is neglected  and our valuable moments, lifestyles,
 culture, heritage and many more are not documented and thus left to disintegrate
 and in the process forgotten. The past has a basis on today and how the future is shaped.

The digital solutions can transform and rejuvenate histories in terms of publicity, accessibility, 
tutorials,  or enhance the organization's and the documentation of the past for future use.

Your task is to identify a valuable past or an area that is in need of preserving for a particular 
client; families, teenagers, children, community, that can be addressed or solved using an IT
 based solution or introduce a new in the community. The problem should be clearly described 
and the client's current way of addressing the situation described. The problem description 
should include the current limitations the client is facing and detailed explanation of why you 
think an IT solution will be the best.
