Web Archiving in Higher Education

In the previous Bobcatsss conferences, I was focusing on the education of web archiving (mainly from a professional library training perspective) and presented the ways of use of web archive collections for research purposes. In this short lecture I will offer another perspective, I would like to introduce in a short overview the ways of integration of web archiving to various higher education programs (in Bachelor and master levels) in different disciplinary frameworks. Several aspects of web archiving can appear in the context of Computer Science (open software development, web archive collections as big data and subject of data mining, data analyzing activities etc.), related to Library and Information Science (running web archiving projects, services in different scales in various institutional environments). Digital Humanities is also relevant in this perspective (generate special web-archive collections for various research projects in analyzing text, visualize data etc.). Courses related to History and corresponding fields like Archival Science and Museology can focus on the features of web archive materials as historical resources and offer competences to get involved in the rapidly developing field of Web History. In my view these kind of elements in various disciplinary frameworks and perspectives can offer a special knowledge and valuable competences for university and college students and offers new ways of cooperation among lecturers and researchers in various fields
