Cultural Anthropology:Mapping Cultures Across Space and Time
focuses primarily on six key regions of the world
and weaves each region throughout all 14 chapters
through in-depth EthnoCases.
Students not only explore the histories of these regions,
but also follow key ethnic and cultural groups
across both time and space,
developing their knowledge and understanding
of the changes and challenges
the people of these regions face.
Each chapter of Cultural Anthropology
begins with an EthnoCase Map.
The map details the regions and EthnoCases
that will be explored in the chapter.
Each chapter also contains a media quiz.
Students are asked to watch a video
and presented with questions related to the content.
Students will be required to think critically
as they apply what they have learned in the chapter
to the videos.
To help students practice anthropology,
MindTap offers GIS Story Map
and Anthropologist's Toolkit Fieldwork activities.
The GIS Story Map activities
provide your student with an interactive map
and a series of related questions.
Students will interact with the map
as they research and explore the world as an anthropologist.
Questions will require them to think critically
about the map and chapter concepts.
Anthropologist's Toolkit Fieldwork activities
encourage students to practice anthropology
in their communities.
Students won't just be reading about chapter concepts,
but putting them into practice
as they experience how an anthropologist
would conduct and analyze research.
Require your students to write papers in your course?
To help students research and write well-thought-out papers,
MindTap offers the Questia app.
Questia is an online library of books, academic journals,
magazines, and newspapers.
It offers you and your students access to full articles
that can be used for research
or can be brought into the learning path
to provide additional insights into chapter concepts.
An online writing center provides your students
with tools and tutorials
to help them plan, organize,
and write amazing papers for your course.
Furthering students' mastery of the content
is Mastery Training by Cerego.
Mastery Training is an app within every chapter of MindTap
that will take students from memorization to mastery.
Mastery Training is an adaptive engine
that helps students learn concepts quickly and effectively.
Students study a little everyday
to remember the material longer.
The adaptive engine remembers the terms
that students are struggling with
and will present these terms at regular intervals
until the students have mastered the concept.
An interactive dashboard allows students
to track their progress
and see what terms they are struggling with
and when their next study session will be.
A convenient mobile app allows students
to study anywhere, anytime.
You can track your students' progress
and engagement in MindTap in real-time
with the Progress app.
MindTap for Cultural Anthropology
will help you to improve workflow, engagement,
and outcomes in your course.
More importantly, it will help your students
to understand anthropological concepts
and put them into practice in their everyday lives.
