#Alternative Paths
The chapters in The Archive as Classroom touch on a broad variety of topics, themes, and critical conversations central to our collective fields of study. In addition the main thematic divisions we've used to arrange this collection— Digital / Archive / Literacy / Narrative—we realize that readers may wish to make their way through the collection by forging a slightly different path, following some of these additional foci as they show up in the contents. Below, we offer several alternative approaches to the collection, a series of thematic hashtags that link chapters according to pedagogical priorities and outcomes.
