Pedagogy in Anthropology
ANTHRO 3636

Course Information

Description

This course has two aims: 1) to provide graduate students with the necessary training to be effective Teaching Fellows at Harvard, and 2) to give you the tools to develop your own approach to critical pedagogy in the field of Anthropology. Required for graduate students in the Spring of their second year. Classes will also be advertised to all Anthropology graduate students as optional Pedagogy Workshops for professional development. While discussions will be tailored to the unique challenges of teaching in Anthropology (across Archaeology and Social Anthropology), students will also be prepared to TF outside of Anthropology. Workshop-style classes are interspersed with formal office hours throughout the semester. Office hours are designed for one-on-one or small-group consultation with the Pedagogy Fellow in conjunction with course requirements.
