Digital Laboratory
The Digital Laboratory (labdigital) is intended for the production of a series of digital materials prepared by undergraduate and graduate students of the UFPA History course and made available free of charge to teachers of the Public Education Network, high school students and the general public. Going beyond the final product, we value the process of training a History professional that transits and explores a more updated language in tune with the new media and social networks. We are expanding the pedagogical mechanisms of insertion of our students in the Digital Age. At the same time, it allows undergraduates and graduates a new way of understanding and socializing the knowledge they have access to throughout their professional training. Labdigital has audio and image recording studio, document scanning kits, computers for editing images, audio, maps and documents, website for the dissemination of the material produced by the students.

The resources of this notice guaranteed the creation of the Digital Laboratory of the Faculty of History, LABDIGITAL. Coordinated by Professor Antônio Otaviano Vieira Jr. LABDIGITAL works in the building of the History Laboratory and its activities of digitization of historical sources, production of audio-visual didactic material and dissemination of the works of researchers and students of the History area of UFPA. of the master's and doctoral students of PPHIST, through their respective research groups.
The physical infrastructure has been the target of investments by the Program, Faculty of History and Rectory, which is not limited to the new building, but includes furniture and computer equipment. A building that joins the Laboratory of History to the Graduate Program assists in a closer relationship between graduate and undergraduate studies, as in fact it has happened mainly because of the joint activities that have been carried out in the building. LABHIS has become the center of graduate and undergraduate academic life, where a range of academic activities, such as classes, events, lectures, undergraduate, graduate, and research group meetings, converge.
The Amazon Memory Center is a sub-unit of UFPA partner of PPHIST / UFPA and the Faculty of History.
