- Collaboratively Teaching and Doing History: Promoting Historical Research in the 21st Century Carey, Elaine Pun, Raymond History Instruction Archives Primary Sources Library Role Printed Materials Course Descriptions Cooperative Learning Teaching Methods History Graduate Students Undergraduate Students Public Libraries Creative Teaching A collaborative course introduced history students to a variety of digital tools and printed materials for historical research. The authors explore the development of this program by a historian and a librarian as a case study to address the value of teaching history outside of the classroom and allowing students to conduct research on-site. This type of research allows students to "do history" and identify how to critically read an archival document or a manuscript and how to understand the importance of libraries, archival institutions, and historical documents in a historical framework. The authors examine the purpose of the course and assess the impact on the cohort of students.
