Forty chapters offer general advice and specific techniques to aid in the teaching of anthropology. The greatest portion of the volume is devoted to cultural anthropology, though language, archaeology, biological anthropology, and general subjects are also covered.
A reference tool for any teacher of Anthropology.

Unique in focus and content, this book focuses on the “how” of teaching anthropology across all of its sub-fields—Cultural-Social, Biological, Archaeology, and Linguistics (and their two dimensions: research and applied studies)—and to provide a wide array of associated learning outcomes and student activities. It is a valuable single-source compendium of strategies and teaching “tricks of the trade” from a group of seasoned teaching anthropologists—working in a variety of teaching settings—who share their pedagogical techniques, knowledge, and observations. Focused on the applied, “how to do it” side of the pedagogical nature of teaching, the text is designed to fill the gap between students who are taking an anthropology class for the first time and instructors who know their subject matter in depth, but who are not sure how to present it to their students in a way that will capture and relay their own excitement with the subject and that will “engage” students in anthropological subject matter and its processes
