Archives in Context
In episode 4 of season 9, cohosts Adreonna Bennett and Conor Casey speak with Julie Thomas, the instruction and electronic records archivist at California State University, Sacramento (CSUS), about her new book, Teaching Primary Source Research Skills to 21st-Century Learners. The conversation touches upon active learning strategies, effective methods of incorporating archival materials into instruction, and the importance of adapting our teaching approach to the learning styles of today’s students.

Sound Files, National Recording Preservation Foundation
The Cuttlefish Project: Preserving Unangax̂ Culture
Discover the journey of the Cuttlefish Project, where the voices of the Unangam Tunuu language come alive through archival recordings in Alaska. In this episode of Sound Files, we explore how these valuable tapes were rescued from obscurity and digitized, thanks to the dedicated efforts of educators Ray Hudson, George Pletnikoff Junior, and curator Leslie McCartney. We’ll hear the powerful stories behind these recordings, highlighting the unwavering commitment to preserve the cultural heritage of the Unangax̂ community and the vital role these sounds play in revitalizing a language on the brink of extinction.
