**OP 019. Anthropology in the Classroom – How Is It Taught?**
Anthropology’s presence in schools has varied greatly over the past decades. Today, across the globe, educators are helping anthropology find its way in to classrooms at all educational levels. Alongside dedicated anthropology courses and qualifications, teachers of other subjects are incorporating anthropological ideas and theories into their classes and offering extra-curricular activities.
We warmly invite educators and researchers of anthropology in schools and other pre-university settings to share their experiences of teaching anthropology. How exactly is anthropology being taught and which methods work well in particular contexts? What kind of resources are teachers drawing upon?
This panel will look at the opportunities and challenges of teaching anthropology in schools and other pre-university settings. The aim is to share current practices and spark new ideas to help anthropology become more widespread in schools. Students are growing up in a highly globalized world, increasingly interconnected by technology, from North America, to Kenya, to Cambodia, and beyond. These connections enhance the need for students to discover what anthropology can teach them about their world. We invite presenters to convey their pedagogies, findings, and ideas through traditional or alternative formats such as showcasing resources, use of multimedia, or other innovative methods.
Panel convenors: Emma Jane Ford (Royal Anthropological Institute) – UK & David Homa (Los Gatos High School) – USA
