Cherokee Concepts About Health And Healing, James Sarbaugh
Cherokee Concepts About Health And Healing, James Sarbaugh
Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society
Health and well-being are maintained in traditional Cherokee communities by carefully balancing the social, and sacred, relationships between all spiritually significant beings, human or otherwise. An imbalance in these relationships results in ill health that affects the entire community. Balance is maintained or restored through ritual practice in which both women and men may play critical roles as trained specialists who rely on medicines, physical therapies, and ritual language and non-verbal means to communicate sacred knowledge. Practitioners must also constantly monitor, evaluate, and make use of new knowledge gained from the surrounding environment, employing methods that are intrinsically conservative, yet …
Reclaiming The Narrative: Creating And Sustaining Culturally Appropriate University Programs For American Indian Students, Trey Adcock
Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society
Using Kirkness and Barnhardt’s (2001) Four R’s approach, the paper will demonstrate both successes and challenges in the development and implementation of sustainable programs for recruitment and retention of American Indian students at a Primarily White Institution of higher education. Historically, the University of North Carolina Asheville (UNC Asheville website, n.d.) has had very few continuous and concerted efforts to recruit, retain, and build relationships with the surrounding American Indian community. This can be seen most clearly in the current institutional data, which shows that the American Indian student population makes up only 0.005 percent of the total student community. …
Negotiating Intersubjectivity As Methodology: Ethnographic Fieldwork And The Co-Production Of Knowledge, Brandon D. Lundy, Mark Patterson, Alex O'Neill
Negotiating Intersubjectivity As Methodology: Ethnographic Fieldwork And The Co-Production Of Knowledge, Brandon D. Lundy, Mark Patterson, Alex O'Neill
Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society
How is ethnographic knowledge fashioned and impressions managed during power-laden, discursive interview events? This chapter examines ethnographic encounters with foreign investors, development workers, and government officials in Guinea-Bissau as a way to explore intersubjectivity as a site of meaning making. These encounters take place in negotiated spaces where the dynamics of the encounter are fluid and contextually sensitive. Through an analysis of the co- production of knowledge, social researchers can begin to examine intersubjectivity within the ethnographic interview as both a shared resource and a potential liability for ethnographic interlocutors. This chapter highlights some of the methodological implications of negotiating …

The Art Of Anthropology At A College In Crisis: Exploring Some Effects Of Neoliberalism On Higher Education, Vincent H. Melomo
The Art Of Anthropology At A College In Crisis: Exploring Some Effects Of Neoliberalism On Higher Education, Vincent H. Melomo
Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society
This chapter addresses the increasing pervasiveness of neoliberal ideologies in our culture and focuses on the implications of these ideologies for the future of anthropology in higher education. More specifically, the chapter considers how these ideologies pose a particular challenge to anthropology’s more humanistic dimensions, which include both the art of anthropology and an anthropology of art. Throughout the chapter, the author tells the story of how reductions were made recently to the anthropology program at his institution in response to converging economic crises. He analyzes the context of these changes and the process by which they were made in …
The Art Of Teaching Anthropology: Examples From Biological Anthropology, Susan Kirkpatrick Smith, Laura D. Lund, Marilyn R. London
The Art Of Teaching Anthropology: Examples From Biological Anthropology, Susan Kirkpatrick Smith, Laura D. Lund, Marilyn R. London
Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society
Teaching in a college or university setting has many challenges, including often-inadequate preparation in graduate school and the requirement to develop new courses, often in a short period of time. Anthropology faculty are at a particular disadvantage because anthropology lacks any discipline-specific journals for the publication of articles on the scholarship of teaching and learning. Many anthropology faculty desire to have more resources available for course and assignment development. In this chapter, we present several examples of course syllabi, class activities, and a sample student paper that faculty can use as they develop or revise anthropology courses.
Arts Integration As Critical Pedagogy, Elizabeth A. Sheehan
Arts Integration As Critical Pedagogy, Elizabeth A. Sheehan
Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society
This chapter discusses arts integration in K-12 education as a form of critical pedagogy, a way to create a “curriculum within the curriculum” that meets the demands of standardized testing while encouraging students to make meaningful connections to the material they are taught. Arts integration allows teachers to use a wide range of art forms to teach core subjects, including those emphasized by statewide standardized tests. Focusing on an arts integration project for fourth graders at a Title I elementary school in Richmond, Virginia, the chapter describes how the study of African American history in the former capital of the …
