an Archaeological Blog &#8211; 6th January 2024"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>We thought we\u2019d start 2024 with something really different!\u00a0 In several of our 2023 sessions we looked at the different ways archaeologists record what they find.\u00a0 In a fitting start to the New Year we looked at the new ways we can use technology to digitally record and spread the news of the latest archaeological discoveries as they happen!<\/p>\n<p>MAYA volunteer Caroline Pathy-Barker led the session where she showed us how to make an Archaeological Blog!\u00a0 We started out by thinking about the sorts of questions we might need to include, and then split up into groups to carry out mini-interviews with other members.\u00a0 We then uploaded them to a special app where we can edit them and include music. \u00a0Eventually we hope we can continue to make blogs of future sessions, especially when we\u2019re out and about, and upload them to our MAYA website!<\/p>\n<p>This was an exciting session as it also including a visit by Rebecca Jacobs from YAC HQ who is doing an Impact Study on how our members feel about being part of a YAC club.\u00a0 Only seven clubs have been chosen throughout the country to take part and MAYA is one of them!\u00a0 Rebecca brought along activity sheets for our members to fill in and talked to them about what they enjoyed about being a members and the sort of things they would like to do in future sessions.\u00a0 We got some really good feedback from our members which was fantastic!<\/p>\n<p>A big thank you to Caroline for running such an interesting session and to Rebecca for coming to visit us.\u00a0 We look forward to hearing from her again when she has finished the study.<\/p>\n<p><a
