HIST5011B Perspectives in Comparative and Public History

本課程講述公眾史學的興起和發展，並闡述公眾史學所涵蓋的主題和方法。公眾史學有別於學院式的精英歷史，側重於將歷史與現實結合，並讓更多的人參與其中。本課程將介紹公眾史學以不同形式參與不同地域和社區的歷史，著重田野調查、歷史檔案、博物館、文化遺產保護、口述歷史和數位人文等方面的課題，建構不同群體的共同記憶。公眾史學在數位人文和新媒體的影響下，建立更多的平台。

Attention is drawn to University policy and regulations on honesty in academic work, and to the disciplinary guidelines and procedures applicable to breaches of such policy and regulations. Details may be found at http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/policy/academichonesty/.

With each assignment, students will be required to submit a signed declaration that they are aware of these policies, regulations, guidelines and procedures.

• In the case of group projects, all members of the group should be asked to sign the declaration, each of whom is responsible and liable to disciplinary actions, irrespective of whether he/she has signed the declaration and whether he/she has contributed, directly or indirectly, to the problematic contents.
• For assignments in the form of a computer-generated document that is principally text-based and submitted via VeriGuide, the statement, in the form of a receipt, will be issued by the system upon students’ uploading of the soft copy of the assignment.

Assignments without the properly signed declaration will not be graded by teachers.

Only the final version of the assignment should be submitted via VeriGuide.

The submission of a piece of work, or a part of a piece of work, for more than one purpose (e.g. to satisfy the requirements in two different courses) without declaration to this effect shall be regarded as having committed undeclared multiple submissions. It is common and acceptable to reuse a turn of phrase or a sentence or two from one’s own work; but wholesale reuse is problematic. In any case, agreement from the course teacher(s) concerned should be obtained prior to the submission of the piece of work.
