| Sumario: | In view of the significance and value of archives used in history teaching, this study explored the teaching needs of history teachers in using archival materials in order to integrate archival materials into teaching. The questionnaire surveyed the information seeking behavior and the use orientation of archives on high school history teachers. The focus-group interviews of history teachers were conducted to collect the opinions of integrating archives into curriculum design. In this study, both of qualitative and quantitative methods were used to fully explore the process of analyzing the teaching needs of using archives into teaching plans and realize how to integrate archives into history curriculum.
The results indicated: (1) The information needs of history teachers were for “pre-teaching preparation” and “maintaining professional growth,” either were for the use of archives. Because of the convenience of searching, they used the Internet to find teaching information. (2) History teachers often used Internet resources for lesson preparation, agreeing that the most useful teaching materials were videos and photos, but the process of finding materials often encountered a large amount of data and it was difficult to filter them. (3) History teachers didn’t use the archives frequently, but they used photos and audiovisual archives to teach for visual effects. They searched teaching data of archives through the Internet and then browsed online. (4) Teachers recognized the benefits of integrating archives teaching, but they lacked the ability to use archives for course. They hoped that the archives would provide consultation and guidance on the use of collections.
