Your final assignment consists of two inter-related components, which will require you to work independently or in a group of 3-4 students to prepare: A) Zoom PowerPoint presentation which summarizes the key features of your proposed ethnographic project, and B) 10- to 12-page Ethnographic Research Proposal. The inter-related assignments require that you: • Develop an original ethnographic research project and question/s, • Undertake original library research in order to identify and build on the relevant ethnographic precedent, • Concisely explain and justify the methodologies that will help you explore and answer your research question/s, • Discuss your data analysis approach, • Evaluate the ethics issues, entailments, and challenges or hazards associated with your proposed approach, summarize your data management strategy, and • Discuss the objectives and outcomes that may arise from your research. You are welcome to focus on any anthropological and/or sociological research topic, and encouraged to choose those issues that you find interesting, and for which there are sufficient secondary scholarly resources (e.g., journal articles, book chapters, ethnographies, documentary films).

What are the Humanities? Competency Identify key traditions and ideas influencing our culture. You will be required to outline how the study of Humanities enables us to learn more about how traditions and ideas influence culture. In modern times, the Humanities has come to encompass a large variety of topics, all of which reference back to culture in various aspects.

While broad in scope, its focus on critical thinking, analyzing, and the ability to reflect on one’s place in the larger narrative of humankind. Please watch the video below.

A few years ago I watched a program on the National Geographic Channel that examined the lifestyle of a certain indigineous tribe in a remote part of the Amazon rain forest. The cultural anthropologists were following a group of village hunters through the jungle and closely watched the natives as they caught several dozen large Goliath bird-eading tarantulas. And when I say large, I mean gigantic – as least as far as spiders are concerned! And get this; not only do they eat birds as their name implies, but also lizards, small mammals and even snakes are on the menu.  I was incredulous as I watched the hunters, upon returning to their village, start a fire to heat a large pile of rocks, and then afterward place the spiders on the rocks, or better said – coals. Yes, they roasted the spiders as part of a village feast.  And if you watched the program, you would indeed conclude it was a feast, as many of the villagers, young and old, ate tarantula for dinner. And other than the hair, which is used by the animal as a form of defense against other predators, the people consumed the entire spider. The favorite part for most of them was apparently the creamy content of the thorax, which had the consistency of toothpaste. They even used the animal’s fearsome one-inch fangs as……you guessed it, toothpicks! I have three questions for you.  1. How do you think you would respond if you were in the presence of someone eating a spider or any other so-called creepy crawler, for that matter? Explain why. 2. Would your response be considered ethnocentric? Why or why not? 3.  How can we use the sociological imagination to explain the practice of people eating things that other cultures see as abominable?    Go to the following site: https://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/00000144-0a42-d3cb-a96c-7b4f9e1a0000
