ABOUT THIS BOOK
Archival pedagogy prioritizes student-driven inquiry as part of a process of reciprocal teaching and learning. Heather Fox and Amanda Stuckey edit a volume that offers teaching stories and materials that address the gap between research and educating students.
The contributors examine approaches that integrate exhibitions with archived artifacts, collections, recovery, and digital humanities projects. Throughout, they connect these approaches to conversations about using archived materials in teaching and learning. The essays also feature observations about the work produced from collaborations and provide resources for sustaining future archival pedagogy. Topics include teaching in the twenty-first century; ways to support inclusivity, accessibility, and equity through engagements with digital and non-digital sources; and partnerships across disciplines, grade levels, and learning spaces through the collaborative relationships that emerge from archival teaching.
Interdisciplinary and up-to-date, Students in the Archives reveals how engagement with archived artifacts and collections opens spaces for conversations about the historical, social, and political contexts embedded in their productions and dissemination.
