Responding to a changing cohort profiles in Records and Archives Management education: A collaborative case study

Research output: Other contribution to conferencePresentation onlypeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents a recent collaboration between the CSU Regional Archives and CSU’s School of Information Studies to develop a set of case studies for a Records and Archives Management specialisation subject offered to both under- and post-graduate students in the
School. Due to a number of catalyst events in 2017, including staffing, high enrolments and subject internationalisation, a need to refine the assessment task was identified. From this, the author collaborated with staff at the Regional Archives to develop a set of three case studies for students to use for their major assessment task. The effectiveness of the collaboration is evaluated and next steps are outlined.
