Abstract. Hitherto, digital humanities education approaches have primarily been aimed at students. This paper examines educational programmes for students to teach cultural heritage to pupils. Based on a classification in European framework programmes, concrete practical examples from a digital history teaching and learning laboratory are presented. Suitable digital tools for researching and documenting cultural heritage are introduced, and the possibilities and limitations of data-driven learning with children and young people are reflected upon. Initial results show that, in addition to only rudimentary digital and information-related skills, pupils also have limited knowledge of the processes and requirements associated with the collection, processing and use of data. However, the competent handling of data is of great importance for the evaluation of historical artefacts and events. With support and in an interactive way, these skills can also be taught to younger pupils.
