Short Assignment #4 Writing 20: Translating the Culture Shock

For this work, I hope that you will introduce James Clifford to your conversation in the former mission of Melville Herskovits. In other words, I think you can enter contextual dialogue including Cliford's travel culture and Helskowitz's cultural relativism. In order to prepare for this, please consider the way the author 's argument increases, complicates, or crosses the idea of ​​other authors. How you read the travel culture will change (or do not change) your understanding of the concepts introduced in the text of Herskovits. If there is a high possibility that the two authors are sitting at the same table, what do you think will be the subject of the conversation? What will they say to each other? Do not try to cover everything because there are lots of things that can be effectively expressed on 2 to 3 pages of paper. Focus on narrow enough viewpoints or ideas that can be explored in meaningful ways. For example, if Clief replaces the concept of Heskowitz's "culture" it can write down the question that the concept of "cultural relativism" will be more (or less). Alternatively, you can explore the relationship between anthropologists and 'indigenous peoples' from the perspective of each author. There are many possibilities - write down what is interesting or funny for you. Again, once you start thinking about how the author's idea intersects, you may want to transfer or counter one or more of these ideas yourself. Please do so as long as you clearly identify "problem" or "intersection" you want to explore for the reader.

Valid articles use Herskovits and Clifford to express 1) questions or "problems". 2) Wisely interpret or effectively refer to the framework reference from the source.

We use a short series (100 words), which gradually becomes harder to write tasks that can be done during class or as homework. Initially, after seeking a brief summary of the specified reading, you can easily combine ideas into several related readings, and finally analyze the quality of the arguments or a related series of ideas. As the number and difficulty of micro themes increases, the theme of more formal challenges (such as critical analysis) emerges and may provide effective guidance to teachers and students.

Challenges The subjects of this course include 10 reading quizzes, 4 short-term tasks, and medium term and final exams. The grade is determined based on the following: 10 reading quiz: 5% = (total = 50%) 4 short task: 5% = (total = 20%) provisional test (classroom): 15% final examination: 15% Reading test (50%) Reading test will be conducted on the day of discussion. This is a quick test to test the reading comprehension of this week's reading and the critical understanding of the movie. There will be 12 tests during the semester (5 points for each test will account for 50% of your class) and 2 points for the lowest score will be deleted from your final score . I failed the makeup-free test (see Religious Rituals and Medical Emergency Exceptions Only). These tests include important definitions, multiple choices, truth, and essay questions.

Short-term writing task (20% of final grades): Through the course, I will assign some short-term writing tasks ("essays, essays, reflections, etc."). In general, these will be an informal part designed to help you master specific course blocks of course material or to help you practice key skills such as specific types of interpretation . Your performance against these challenges will be evaluated based on quality, but style, grammar / syntax etc will not be evaluated.
