University is hosting a one-day methods workshop for post-graduate

The objective of the day is to explore contemporary methodological
debates accounting for social studies of childhood and including
'participatory' paradigms.
Speakers will address practical methodological and ethical issues, and
also discuss how their methods of conducting research with children
reflect theory building in respective disciplines and practice in
relevant fields.

#LEARNING ANTHROPOLOGY: DISCIPLINARY CULTURES AND TRADING ZONES.
Wednesday 16th July 2003.
Presentation and discussion led by Mary Taylor Huber (Senior Scholar,
The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, Stanford,
California) and David Mills (Anthropology Co-ordinator, CSAP)
There is a growing scholarly debate, both in the US and the UK, about
the way academic disciplines nurture particular cultures of teaching and
learning within their university classrooms. Through the Carnegie
Foundation, American academics have been encouraged to carry out
research into their own approaches to teaching, and to explore the
contributions disciplinary scholarship can make to the educational
literature. This workshop will discuss how anthropology might learn
from, and add to, this debate.
#POSTGRADUATE TEACHERS: 'FLEXIBLE' ACADEMIC LABOUR?
Thursday 17th July 2003.
In recent years, undergraduate seminar teaching has increasingly become
the responsibility of postgraduate and temporary tutors, usually on
hourly contracts, and sometimes with little support or training. C-SAP
has recently carried out a survey of postgraduate teachers within
anthropology departments. This workshop will be an opportunity to
discuss the results and its implications for the discipline. The
workshop will discuss the AUT's Employment Charter and the possibility
of adopting good-practice guidelines for departments. The workshop will
follow up the 'Teaching Rites of Passage' conference, held in January
2003 in St Andrews.
+APPLICATIONS OF ANTHROPOLOGY III - ESRC SEMINAR SERIES.
Thursday 25th September 2003, University of Birmingham.
As part of the 'Applications in Anthropology' Seminar Events, C-SAP will
be hosting the third event.
This meeting will be a workshop, focusing on how academic departments
and the Association of Social Anthropologists (ASA) might:
a) provide training and skills for postgraduates and
professional anthropologists working outside academia,
b) develop and maintain formal networks and contacts
between academia and applied anthropology.
The event is free to attend.
