Written Activity #2 : When Anthropologists Go “Public
This assignment is next in a series of activities called “Public Anthropology” that we will do this semester. It is inspired by Margaret Mead’s engagement with wider publics – not just other anthropologists. The world, it seems, could benefit from a more anthropological perspective. What is anthropology, what kinds of questions or issues does it raise for you, and how are the skills applicable? What is the “Big Question” that interests you? This is what we are ultimately getting to.
Objective: To think about and synthesize your anthropological learning these past years, and to articulate to nonspecialist audiences the complexities of bringing an anthropological approach to a human problem.
Outcome: Analze the ethics, benefits, and pitfalls of bringing anthropological approaches to wider publics.
First, read the following articles. As usual, some of these are quite short. Your basis for understanding the readings should be the works and discussion from Week 1.
1. Liebow (2018) Actions No More Passive Bystanders, Please

Discussion boards are collaborative learning experiences. Therefore, the student is required to create a thread in response to the prompt provided for each forum. Each thread must be at least 700 words and demonstrate course-related knowledge, including at least 2 peer-reviewed source citations in current APA format, the text, and the integration of 1 biblical principle as outlined in the Discussion Board rubric.
In this course, you have developed the purpose of your research, the problem statement, the research questions, the hypotheses, related your project to the Merida text, and you have started your literature review. By now, you have probably identified at least one theory that you will discuss in your literature review as part of your applied research project. What theory or theories relate well to your topic? How would you incorporate theory into your research? Remember the use of theory is different for qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods approaches. What would be different about the theory used if you chose either fixed, flexible, or a mixed methods approach?
