anthropology course
The way that anthropology course is taught is through directive learning, reading, and seminars. Therefore, I do not have to study through passive lecture experience. I also have access to the reading guidance, form my own opinions and talk about my views, which is probably what I did not expect while pursuing an anthropology course. Through reading about different cultures, anthropology gives an alternative outlook to ways of life. The course has enabled me to study anthropology in a broad, creative, and comprehensive format.
The academic culture of studying anthropology is different in the sense that it involves a lot of freedom, time and independence. Moreover, there is no exact path that needs to be followed in the study. Therefore, I can learn things that are appealing to me. Through this, it has helped with my time management, especially during ethnographic research. Ethnographical research requires one to spend a lot of time in the field learning and understanding the sociocultural world. For this to be achieved, they must take part in local activities and learn the native language.
The study of anthropology and art depends on observation skills to present and collect valuable data. Anthropology requires the representation of data through writing, whereas artists represent their discoveries through artistic mediums, especially in paintings that need a canvas. Through the study of anthropology, I have been able to interpret art and to use canvas during the examination of ethnography. The interaction and research of the culture of various people and representing the same through painting requires a piece of vast knowledge on how to paint generally.
