Disruptive pedagogies for archival research In a cultural moment
when institutional repositories carry valuable secrets to the
present and past, this collection argues for the critical,
intellectual, and social value of archival instruction. Graban and
Hayden and 37 other contributors examine how undergraduate and
graduate courses in rhetoric, history, community literacy, and
professional writing can successfully engage students in archival
research in its many forms, and successfully model mutually
beneficial relationships between archivists, instructors, and
community organizations.Combining new and established voices from
related fields, each of the book's three sections includes a range
of form-disrupting pedagogies. Section I focuses on how approaching
the archive primarily as textfosters habits of mind essential for
creating and using archives, for critiquing or inventing
knowledge-making practices, and for being good stewards of private
and public collections. Section II argues for conducting archival
projects as collaboration through experiential learning and for
developing a preservationist consciousness through disciplined
research. Section III details praxis for revealing, critiquing, and
intervening in historic racial omissions and gaps in the archives
in which we all work. Ultimately, contributors explore archives as
sites of activism while also raising important questions that
persist in rhetoric and composition scholarship, such as how to
decolonize research methodologies, how to conduct teaching and
research that promote social justice, and how to shift archival
consciousness toward more engaged notions of democracy. This
collection highlights innovative classroom and curricular course
models for teaching with and through the archives in rhetoric and
composition and beyond.
