Two question answer simple

  • Part 1. This week’s prompt is a silly icebreaker. What is the weirdest food you have eaten? What is your favorite food? What is the food you absolutely hate? Any particular reasoning?
  • Part 2. In this lesson, we contemplate two different relational concepts fundamental to the anthropological study of human beings as a species.

Step 1

Jot down some adjectives that describe the characteristics of science and belief (you may also use associated words, or those that can be used interchangeably).

Step 2

Now, do the same for biology and culture. Jot down some adjectives that describe the characteristics of each.

Step 3

Now, read the two short articles listed below. Don’t get bogged down by too many details. Instead, read so you understand the general idea behind the two very different approaches to deafness. Then, review the discussion questions below and prepare your thoughts for the discussion. You may wish to jot down your thoughts ahead of the discussion.
