Experience-rich anthropology
Enhancing the teaching and learning of anthropological
concepts by widening student experience using anthropological field
materials.
A consortium of UK universities led by CSAC has developed
"experience-based" teaching units over the period 1996-1999 with the
support of UK HEFCE funding under the FDTL program. This WWW site will
contains information about the project as it has developed.
This project enhances the teaching and learning of anthropology by encouraging
teachers to help students explore the relationships between field data
and analysis as reported in monographs and journal articles. Experience
at UKC and elsewhere has shown that students value and benefit from
being able to study field data as well as the results of its analysis.
The project will disseminate elements, methods and sample teaching
materials based on existing field data (field notes, film or
photographic or other types of data) suitable for incorporation into
current and new courses.
