With Community and For Community:Developing Public Outreach and Educational Programs
Date:
Tuesday, November 12, 2024 at 10:30 am
Venue:
Room 406, Putong Lecture Bldg, Main Campus, National Taiwan University
Abstract:
Developing archaeological education and public outreach programs with Indigenous communities and for Indigenous communities involves collaboration. To achieve a successful outcome, the effort must be a co-creative process that takes varying perspectives and ways-of-knowing into account. As archaeologists, we are schooled in the scientific method. We work with material culture to try to understand past ways-of-life. Developing successful public outreach programming with and for Indigenous communities, involves a more complex skill set. Archaeological educators must go beyond and draw from the disciplines of cultural anthropology, archaeology, and education. We must understand cultural sensitives, differences in communication-styles, and learning-styles. Co-creation— working together with community members from conception to creation—will lead to more successful utilization of the outreach products. This presentation will provide basic information onprogram development including: background on the inclusion of multiple ways of knowing, the development ofprograming based on the situation, and will touch on learning-styles and the different types of cultural communication.
The talk will be chaired by Prof. CHIANG Chih-hua, Associate Professor, Department of Anthropology, National Taiwan University.
The talk will be given in English. Registration is not required.
