高校开设档案选修课探析

A Discussion on Offering Selective Courses on Archives in Universities

近年来,随着档案信息的社会需求不断增加,档案工作的内涵与外延也随之扩大,大学生档案意识素质教育已成为高等教育的重要组成部分。但是,由于现实的某些局限性,目前真正全面开展档案选修课的高校并不多。针对此现象,本文从高校开设档案选修课的必要性、可行性以及关于档案选修课的教学三个层面围绕主题分析论证,并提出高校应当根据学校自身的实际情况,结合档案学专业的特点和选修课的特点开设档案选修课,传授档案学基础知识,传播档案信息资源,强化大学生的档案意识,这对高校开设人文社科类的选修课拓展了很好的思路。

Recently,with the increasing social need of archival information and the deepening and extension of archi-val work,it is becoming urgent to make the archival knowledge course part of the system of higher education. But the reality is that few universities offer archival courses in their selective course system. This article makes an analysis of the necessity,probability,and feasibility of offering selective course on archives and gives suggestion on the teaching of archival courses. We hold that the opening and teaching of archival courses should accord with the actual situation of each university,the characteristics of archival administration and the characteristics of selective courses. The major tasks of archives courses are to teach the basic knowledge of archival administration,to spread the resources of archi-val information and to strengthen college students＆#39; consciousness of archival administration. We hope to offer with this paper a new angle on the development of selective courses of humanities and social sciences to universities.
