The uses of PIAF and IT in teaching Archival Science
Anne-Marie BruleauxUniversity of Haute-Alsace(Mulhouse, France)

What is the PIAF ?
Portail international des Archivistes francophones (Portal of International Francophone Archivists)
It is a project of the AIAF (Association Internationale des Archives Francophones)
3
Some important dates (1/2)1998-2000 Several meetings were organised by ICA
and DAF in Stockholm (CITRA) and Paris. The first idea was to translate into French the courses of IRMT.
A new project was defined, supported by AIAF. A course on archival science online.
2001
Work began: teachers and archivists from different countries met in a seminar in Tunis and decided a program for the section « Se former » (self-training)
Feb. 2002
4
Some important dates (2/2)Aug. 2004 The prototype of the PIAF was presented at
the International Congress on Archives in Vienna
The PIAF was inaugurated at the World Summit of the Information Society in Tunis.
Nov. 2005
A new version of the PIAF will be introduced on june 15th.

6
Three sections
Self Training Self Information E-Formation
7
Self-training
A universally accessible and free course in archival science composed of seven lessons divided into 14 modules
This is oriented to staff working in archives and records repositories (trained or untrained personnel), records managers, archivists, students in archival science, etc.
8
Some statistics
23 authors and a coordinator 2893 web pages 979 pictures 175 glossary references 234 exercises
9
A Tool to Develop and Support
Knowledge Comprehension Application Analysis and synthesis Evaluation
10
The PIAF: A Tool for Knowledge
To deepen understanding To supplement presential theoretical
courses For example:
Preservation and Insects
11
Two slides in my course
Reference to the PIAF: chapter 1.5.2. about Insects
12
The PIAF: A Tool for Comprehension
To support a theoretical lesson A glossary Illustrations
Scenography for exhibitions Animations
Explanation of the deterioration of documents: books, brochures
Exercises with corrections: arrangement, archival description
13
The PIAF: A Tool for Evaluation
Many multiple choice quizzes (MCQ) online
For example: buildings, access 1, access 2, access 3
Potential uses:Teachers: models to create other MCQsStudents: to test their knowledge and study
for exams
14
The PIAF: A Tool for Application
To put into practice theoretical knowledge Exercises:
Organisation of stacksOpen your eyes on stacksOpen your eyes on handling
15
The PIAF: A Tool for Analysis and Synthesis
A cooperative workspace: e-formation A virtual space opened to teachers with a
project of cooperative work with students Creation of special workspaces (dedicated
on-demand workspaces)
16
Disadvantages of a learning platform Until now, learning platforms were not very convenient
for cooperative work: students could be read-only or have the possibility to submit their works
Moodle is a new kind of platform which is better adapted
Most of the time, however, platforms are reserved to students of a specific university and not available externally
Problems working out of your organisation: with another organisation or with students in a continuing training program
17
Advantages of the PIAF
An open space for everyone, anywhere on the planet
Terms of access: Three roles Read-only: can read everything, but not change
contents (except to post comments if allowed) Member: can submit and change contents. Can
participate in a forum Administrator: can change and eliminate contents.
Can change format and participant status
18
Potential
Students and teachers from different organisations and countries may work together
Different ways according to designated user rights and roles Students from different organisations working
together Teachers and/or students sharing experiments Intergroup tutorial
19
Working Together
Students from Mulhouse and Ebad
working togetherin a same space
A group of students in Mulhouse
A group of students in
EBAD
Two groups in one space
20
Sharing Experiments
A teacher from
Mulhousewith a group of students
A teacher from EBAD
Invited Observer
with a group of students
21
Intergroup Tutorial
Students in Master 1
Students in Master 2
Intergroup Tutorial
22
Developed Skills
Familiarization of technologies increasingly used in government and business (workflow)
Team-player development Team-player management
23
Examples of Use
Two projects carried out with students of Master 1 in Archival Science in Mulhouse:2006-2007: Les archives du citoyen
(Citizenship documents)2007-2008: Les archives du quotidien
(Personal documents) Contemporary diplomatics (Practical
exercises)
24
Other IT Experiments
Use of learning platforms: Dokeos: for example, to teach encoding
finding aids into XML/EADMoodle: experimental project (internship
follow-up)Tutorials in Flash: for example, Using a
spreadsheet to arrange archivesSecond Life ???
