Undergraduate research can be broadly defined to incorporate scientific inquiry, creative expression, and scholarship with the result of producing original work. Academic archives and special collections can play a vital role in the undergraduate research process, particularly for students in the humanities and social sciences. The original primary source materials housed in on-campus repositories coupled with the experience and guidance of archivists can assist students in learning to analyze documents and create innovative research projects. The educational role of archivists has long been espoused in the literature, but has not been analyzed to examine the content, quality, and impact of the instruction archivists provide to students. The research studies reported in this dissertation investigate the instructional role that archivists play in the emerging undergraduate research movement by surveying instructional practices, interviewing teaching archivists, and developing a rubric for assessing archival instruction. |
