Abstract

The third plenary address focuses on the relationship of preservation research to classroom pedagogy. The address reports on the findings at the University of Michigan of the Preservation and Access Virtual Education Laboratory, including a survey of students who used the technology teaching tool. The address raises three research topics for further discussion and research, including evaluation of student learning styles, evaluation of pedagogical approaches, and evaluation of actual student learning in the context of preservation education. Three commentators explored the implications of student learning in a tool-based classroom setting.
