Changes to my study programme
Hello everyone again, this time I am going to talk about the changes I would make to the study programme in my career. First start with the fact that I study anthropology, a career that needs a lot of field work, therefore I would start the first year with an introduction on field work and small practices guided and accompanied by a teacher. Anthropology is a career of reading a lot but it lacks more practical work in my opinion.
Another change I would make is in the teaching method of certain courses that could be entertaining or interesting but turn out to be boring, since many professors do not teach in a pedagogical way, they teach us only through repetition and memory. I find the academic load acceptable but I feel that they give us little time to complete more difficult tests such as an essay for example, being that this type of test needs more reflection and more extensive explanations.
About infrastructure I think we need more resting spaces, but real resting spaces where we can be totally in silence and with the possibility of taking a nap in that place, and in terms of academic spaces, I believe that archaeology especially needs more and larger spaces in which to simulate excavations and the search for archaeological material. Technology should also be presented as a friend of the social sciences, it can help us a lot in those areas that we can consider more boring, for example in data collection, data transformation to statistics, similarity of data presented, etc.
hi, i agree with you a lot of our class are only focus in repetition and memory, they only make me lose interest
ResponderBorrarI didn't think about the possibility of having more field work! I agree with you absolutely and it would be great have a place where you can get a nap
