ANTH0006: Researching the Social World (21/22)
This course provides an introduction to contemporary social anthropological
research training with an emphasis on the use of digital media, written
ethnographic engagement and visual methodologies. The course introduces
students to the history of anthropological field work before moving through
the various developments that anthropological approaches and methods have
undergone over the past 100 years. Students will engage with practical
observational methods, of interview and of audio and or visual
documentation as well as ethnographic writing. They will be introduced to
the place of ethical considerations in research. Theoretical sessions on
methods of documenting and communicating anthropological research
(visually, audibly and in written form) will inform a collaborative
practical exercise that will constitute the final output - an ethnographic
piece of film
