2 Page 2 of 6 On March 2012 the interdisciplinary project NEOMAP entitled "Neolithisation and Modernisation: Landscape History on East Asian Inland Seas" will conclude with a international conference at Leiden University. Jaarverslag Archeologie Inland seas, hereby defined as seas surrounded by lands such as continents and chains of islands, have functioned as world-wide trading spots and also collision spots for various cultures since prehistory. Focusing on the East Asian region NEOMAP investigated the changing role of inland seas as creators of cultural landscape diversity. The research employed the broadest definition of landscape, ranging from physical manifestations to cognitive representations, and examined the coastal landscapes of the Japan Sea and the East China Sea, starting from the earliest Neolithic, through to the major transformations associated with the Modern Age. Organised in collaboration with the Faculty of Archaeology, Leiden University, this concluding conference aims to situate the results of NEOMAP within a global comparative perspective. Speakers are invited to examine the role of Inland Seas as both creators of cultural contact, as well as arenas in which cultural diversity could emerge. Papers will focus on a broad range of Inland Seas, including the Caribbean, the Mediterranean; the Baltic and North Sea, as well as the the Inland Seas of East and Southeast Asia. Read more...

Eén van de dingen die naar voren zijn gekomen uit die evaluaties is dat er behoefte is aan meer terugkoppeling van de evaluatieresultaten naar studenten toe. Daarom kunnen de resultaten van de evaluaties die afgelopen november en februari zijn gepresenteerd tijdens de Cohortevaluaties nu online worden bekeken. Aan de hand van PowerPoint presentaties kan rustig worden nagelezen wat er uit de evaluaties is gebleken, en welke stappen zijn genomen om deze zaken te verbeteren. De resultaten zijn te vinden in Blackboard, op de Studentensite > Opleidingscommissie > Evaluatie resultaten. Last February, Cohort evaluations have taken place. One of the issues that resulted from
