Quiz every Tues on Kottak chapter assigned

Check the Blackboard site at least twice a week. We will elect 5-6 blog moderators so you each can post to the blog.

Remember you have your first quiz on Tue. The quiz is on Chap 1 & 2 of the Kottak's Mirror for Humanity.

The first two quizzes are practice (Chaps 1/2 + Chap 3). Do all the work to prepare as it was meant to be done, do complete and impeccable work, and then take the quiz to see what it's like to improve without penalty right away.

Added 9/3/08: Visit http://mhhe.com/kottakmfh6 for the CHAPTER OBJECTIVES for preparing for each chapter's quiz.

Welcome to the Fall Semester of ANT1001!!


Our first class meeting was ... how can I say ... mind-bending! Learn more social constructs and the Peters Map, see other versions of maps including a "South up" map, and check out critiques of the Peters Map itself.

Get familiar with Web 2.0. We will be talking alot about it.
Here's a nifty image comparing Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. >>>>>

I will be posting any assignments under the tag "Assigments" in the Tag Cloud above starting next week.

Stay tuned. Prof. G
