Abstract

ABSTRACT: Through working with the Swansea Academy of Learning and Teaching (SALT) the Richard Burton Archives has become more consciously engaged with pedagogical practice, building upon its experience of providing ad-hoc sessions for students. Based on an updated version of Chickering and Gamson's principles, SALT developed the Seven Characteristics of Good University Teaching programme. The use of archives in learning and teaching will be mapped across the seven principles, giving practical examples of teaching sessions and exercises demonstrating how pedagogical theory and working in partnership with learning and teaching facilitators, can enable archive services to better demonstrate impact, gain new advocates and target wider audiences across many disciplines. It concludes by examining how this will develop in the future (raising issues of digital learning versus learning through encountering), and how feedback is collected and implemented (one of the seven principles).
