ATH 101 Final Project Part B Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric

Overview: In this part of the final project, you will address the categories of cultural diversity, anthropological methods, cultural connections, and predictions of how anthropology can be useful in a future crisis. Whether you choose to answer the final project interview questions in written or audio format, preparing a written draft will help you formulate and strengthen your answers. This will also give you practice in learning to see the crisis situation that you chose from an anthropological viewpoint and allow your instructor to give any feedback or suggestions to fortify your interview before your final project is due.

 

Prompt: Create an outline of your speaking notes for Final Project Part B (Interview Transcript or Recording). You must include all references that you use in forming your answers in the APA citation style. You have already defined and discussed the significance of anthropology, so now you are prepared to jump into the interview and really get at the heart of the crisis situation you have chosen. In this scenario, imagine that a reporter is asking you the questions listed below. In crafting your response, you must address all the aspects of the question represented as “Your Response.” You will answer each piece titled “Your Response” to ensure you are appropriately and accurately answering the question the reporter has posed. You may use the Final Project Part B Milestone Two Template document as a framework for your submission.

 

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed in outline format:

 

Cultural Diversity: In this section, you will explain the importance of understanding and being sensitive to cultural diversity.

Reporter: What is so important that we understand cultural diversity in a time like this? Who cares if we’re all different? What does it matter anyway?

Your Response: Provide an example of human sociocultural identity related to gender. For example, when many people think of farmers, they think of males.

Your Response: Provide an example of human sociocultural identity related to human behavior. For example, when many people think of children, they think of specific behaviors that they exhibit, such as crying, playing, or loving.

Your Response: Provide an example of human sociocultural identity related to animals. For example, when people think of geese, they think of a flock.

Reporter: Human culture might seem more complex than I initially imagined, so how does it relate to the crisis we’ve witnessed here?

Your Response: Describe what some anthropologists can do to help when crises such as these occur. How are they able to navigate crises, such as containing them and informing human cultures while balancing sensitivity to cultural beliefs and practices? What is the importance of doing so?

 

Anthropological Methods: In this section, you will speak as though you are an anthropologist investigating the crisis. You will describe the anthropological methods you would need to use to investigate the crisis, and explain how you believe people would react to you investigating the crisis.

Reporter: Alright, can you explain to the audience how you came to this conclusion?

Your Response: Of the multiple research methods discussed throughout the course, such as excavation, ethnology, and ethnography, select an appropriate method for investigating this crisis, and explain why this method is appropriate.

 

Reporter: How did these people let you study them? Why did they let you? You most likely upset them, right?

Your Response: What types of reactions might you receive from studying this group of people and gathering data by the ways you described? Provide specific examples of both positive and negative reactions.

Your Response: Explain why an objective lens is important when studying a group of people. How might this lens help calm the fears of the group of people you are studying?

 

Cultural Connections: In this section, you will make connections between cultural factors and the likelihood of the crisis occurring in your own culture. If the crisis has already occurred in your own culture, explain how the specific cultural, biological, or environmental factors allowed this to occur.

Reporter: Do you think this crisis could happen here, to us?

Your Response: Explain how specific cultural factors in your culture could or could not allow this crisis to occur, identifying specific factors.

Your Response: Explain the how specific biological factors in your family could or could not allow this crisis to occur, identifying specific factors.

Your Response: Explain how specific environmental factors in your environment could or could not allow this crisis to occur, identifying specific factors.

 

Predictions: In this section, you will explain how an anthropological perspective can assist in future crises.

Reporter: Do you think there is anything that could have informed these people of the crisis? I would hate to think that this could have been recognized and prevented earlier.

Your Response: How can an anthropologist use people’s history to help change the future? Think specifically about the power and importance of historical events, beliefs, and practices in relation to the present, providing real-world examples of the connection between the past and present.

Reporter: Now, I can bet there are people at home that are scared. So, how can you as an anthropologist help in preventing this crisis from happening to us?

Your Response: Explain the value of an anthological lens when creating preventive action plans. Specifically, why are an objective lens and cultural sensitivity important when creating preventive action plans?

Reporter: Finally, do you still enjoy being an anthropologist throughout this apparent chaos? I mean, how has being an anthropologist helped you out personally?

Your Response: How has anthropology helped you better understand the human condition, and how might this help you in your personal and professional life?

Guidelines for Submission: You have the option of submitting an interview transcript or interview recording. Your outline should be a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Any sources should be cited according to APA style. If you choose to submit an interview recording in place of the interview transcript, it must be 5 to 10 minutes in length and should be submitted using the Audio Feature in Brightspace.
