Educational Anthropology is a way of examining educational systems from a cultural anthropologist point of view.
– George Spindler (Education and Cultural Process: Anthropological approaches, 2nd edition.1987 Waveland Press).
What is educational anthropology?

Formal Education vs. Informal Education
Formal education is focused about schools, in learning skills, and dispositions. A good education works about what is most important in a person’s life, whether it be religion, political ideology, artistic identity, and all that makes the particular character of a person’s outlook on life.
The informal education teaches the things that we do not explicitly teach in school. For example, consider the natural language of children who seem to achieve competence in the language of those around them (without formal instruction) but in the course of their lives they achieve competence in a second language or different dialects of their first language.

How does cultural anthropology fits in with Information Age Education?
People learn well in informal, interactive, social environments. Consider this statement in terms of the one billion cell telephones using instant messaging, chat groups, the success of online computer games with millions of players, and the success of social networking systems.
Quoting Herve Varenne’s grandmother, who left school after the 6th grade, circa 1914, on the occasion of his PhD, “Remember, you may have more instruction than I have, but you are not more educated.”

“If it were possible to define generally the mission of education, it could be said that its
fundamental purpose is to ensure that all students benefit from learning in ways that
allow them to participate fully in public, community, and economic life.”
— New London Group (2000, p. 9)

Participatory Culture
Teens and Social Media by Amanda Lenhart, Mary Madden, Aaron Smith, Alexandra Macgill
Dec 19, 2007
– Content creation by teenagers continues to grow, with 64% of online teenagers ages 12 to 17 engaging in at least one type of content creation, up from 57% of online teens in 2004.
– Girls continue to dominate most elements of content creation. Some 35% of all teen girls blog, compared with 20% of online boys, and 54% of wired girls post photos online compared with 40% of online boys. Boys, however, do dominate one area - posting of video content online. Online teen boys are nearly twice as likely as online girls (19% vs. 10%) to have posted a video online somewhere where someone else could see it.
– The survey found that content creation is not just about sharing creative output; it is also about participating in conversations fueled by that content. Nearly half (47%) of online teens have posted photos where others can see them, and 89% of those teens who post photos say that people comment on the images at least "some of the time."
– However, many teen content creators do not simply plaster their creative endeavors on the Web for anyone to view; many teens limit access to content that they share.
– There is a subset of teens who are super-communicators -- teens who have a host of technology options for dealing with family and friends, including traditional landline phones, cell phones, texting, social network sites, instant messaging, and email. They represent about 28% of the entire teen population and they are more likely to be older girls.

A Participatory Culture . . .
With relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement
With strong support for creating and sharing one’s creations with others
With some type of informal mentorship whereby what is known by the most experienced is passed along to novices
Where members believe that their contributions matter
Where members feel some degree of social connection with one another (at the least they care what other people think about what they have created)
![Page 8: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Forms of Participatory Culture
Affiliations — memberships, formal and informal, in online communities centered around various forms of media, such as Friendster, Facebook, message boards, metagaming, game clans, or MySpace
Expressions — producing new creative forms, such as digital sampling, skinning and modding, fan video gaming, fan fiction writing, zines, mash-ups
Digital Sampling - Converting analog signals into digital form
Skinning and modding - In computing, a skin is a custom graphical appearance achieved by the use of a graphical user interface (GUI) that can be applied to specific software and websites to suit the purpose, topic, or tastes of different users. A skin may be associated with themes.
![Page 9: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Forms of participatory culture…
Modding - Refers to the act of modifying a piece of hardware or software or anything else for that matter, to perform a function not originally conceived or intended by the designer. The term modding is often used within the computer game community, particularly in regard to creating new or altered content and sharing that via the web
Fan video gaming - A fan translation, in video gaming, refers to an unofficial translation of a computer game or video game.
![Page 10: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Forms of participatory culture…
Fan fiction writing - Fan fiction (alternately referred to as fan fiction, fanfic, FF, or fic) is a broadly-defined term for fan labor regarding stories about characters (or simply fictional characters) or settings written by fans of the original work, rather than by the original creator. (e.g. the Epic Cycle supplementing the works of Homer and the various re-tellings of King Arthur's tale which spread around Europe from the 8th century AD onward)
A zine (an abbreviation of the word fanzine, or magazine; pronounced zeen) is most commonly a small circulation publication of original or appropriated texts and images. Zines are written in a variety of formats, from computer-printed text to comics to handwritten text. Notable among these are Giant Robot, Dazed & Confused, Bust, Bitch (magazine) and Maximum RocknRoll.

Forms of participatory culture…
Mash-ups - a mashup is a Web page or application that uses and combines data, presentation or functionality from two or more sources to create new services. The term implies easy, fast integration, frequently using open APIs and data sources to produce enriched results that were not necessarily the original reason for producing the raw source data.
![Page 13: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Forms of participatory culture…
Collaborative Problem-solving — working together in teams, formal and informal, to complete tasks and develop new knowledge (such as through Wikipedia, alternative reality gaming, spoiling).
Circulations — Shaping the flow of media (such as podcasting, blogging).
![Page 14: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Implications
Opportunities for peer-to-peer learning,
A changed attitude toward intellectual property,
The diversification of cultural expression,
The development of skills valued in the modern workplace, and a more empowered conception of citizenship.
![Page 15: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Page 15
Implications to Literacy
Participatory culture shifts the focus of literacy from one of individual expression to community involvement.
The new literacies almost all involve social skills developed through collaboration and networking.
These skills build on the foundation of traditional literacy, research skills, technical skills, and critical analysis skills taught in the classroom.
![Page 16: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Page 16
The New Literacies
Play — the capacity to experiment with one’s surroundings as a form of problem-solving
Performance — the ability to adopt alternative identities for the purpose of improvisation and discovery
Simulation — the ability to interpret and construct dynamic models of real-world processes
Appropriation — the ability to meaningfully sample and remix media content
Multitasking — the ability to scan one’s environment and shift focus as needed to salient details.
Distributed Cognition — the ability to interact meaningfully with tools that expand mental capacities
![Page 17: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Page 17
The New Literacies
Collective Intelligence — the ability to pool knowledge and compare notes with others toward a common goal
Judgment — the ability to evaluate the reliability and credibility of different information sources
Transmedia Navigation — the ability to follow the flow of stories and information across multiple modalities
Networking — the ability to search for, synthesize, and disseminate information
Negotiation — the ability to travel across diverse communities, discerning and respecting multiple perspectives, and grasping and following alternative norms.

Blogs
A blog is a website for which an individual or a group frequently generates text, photographs, video or audio files, and/or links, typically (but not always) on a daily basis.
– The term is a shortened form of weblog.
– Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called "blogging".
– Individual articles on a blog are called "blog posts," "posts," or "entries".
– The person who posts these entries is called a "blogger".

Blogs in School?
Blogs are tools, and like any tools they can be used or misused.
– Misuse occurs more often when there's a lack of instruction. (MySpace, Xanga, Facebook)

Why Students Shouldn’t Blog
People will read it.
People might not like it.
They might share test answers with others.
They might be found by a child predator online
They might write something inappropriate.
They might find something inappropriate.
They might get other students to start blogging.

Podcasts
iPod + Broadcast = Podcast
– Amateur radio
– Podcasting is the method of distributing multimedia files, such as audio programs or music videos, over the Internet using either the RSS or Atom syndication formats, for playback on mobile devices and personal computers.
![Page 29: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Page 29
Why use podcasts?
Podcasts enable students to share their knowledge and expertise with others through a creative outlet.
Podcasts tap into a mode of media input that is commonplace for digital natives.
Podcasts empower students to form relationships with the content and each other in relevant ways.
![Page 30: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Page 30
Why use podcasts?
Podcasting is yet another way for students to be creating and contributing ideas to a larger conversation, and it’s a way of archiving that contribution for future audiences to use.
– Will Richardson, Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts and Other Powerful Web Tools for Classrooms
![Page 31: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Page 31
How can podcasts be used?
In the classroom, educators and students can use podcasts to inform others about class news, current events, and areas of interest.
Students can use a podcast forum to persuade their peers to help others, make a difference, or try something new.
Podcasts can also be used to edutain others through creative narratives.
![Page 32: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Page 32
How can podcasts be used?
Podcasts engage students in thinking critically about their speaking fluency and communication skills.
The opportunity to create a podcast about what students would like to discuss and share with others is extremely motivating.
![Page 33: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Page 33
Other Enduring Benefits
Along with the use of technology there are certain responsibilities that educators and students need to follow.
– Educators need to instruct students on safe and acceptable use of technology in and outside of the classroom.
– Not only do students need to learn how to appropriately research, but also how to safely and properly share information online.
– Podcasts allow students to learn first hand about copyright laws and fair use issues.

What is a Wiki?
A wiki is a type of website that allows users easily to add, remove, or otherwise edit and change most available content.
![Page 44: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Page 44
How is a Wiki Constructed?
A single page in a wiki is referred to as a "wiki page", while the entire body of pages, which are usually highly interconnected via hyperlinks, is "the wiki“
– in effect, a wiki is actually a very simple, easy-to-use user-maintained database for searching and creating information.
![Page 45: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Page 45
Are Wikis Safe?
Wikis are generally designed with the philosophy of making it easy to correct mistakes, rather than making it difficult to make them.
![Page 46: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Page 46
Are Wikis Safe?
Thus while wikis are very open, they provide a means to verify the validity of recent additions to the body of pages.
– The most prominent, on almost every wiki, is the "Recent Changes" page—a specific list numbering recent edits, or a list of all the edits made within a given timeframe.
![Page 47: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Page 49
Using Wikis as a Source
Wikipedia is as reliable as other external sources we rely on.
Properly written articles cite the sources, and a reader should rely on the Wikipedia article as much, but no more, than the sources the article relies on.
If an article doesn't cite a source, it may or may not be reliable.
Students should never use information in a wiki until they have checked those external sources.
![Page 50: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

What the Experts are Saying
Wikis are helping young people develop “writing skills and social skills by learning about group consensus and compromise—all the virtues you need to be a reasonable and productive member of society.”
– Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia
![Page 51: Connfronting the challenges of a participatory culture](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5549394cb4c9050f4d8b49ed/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Page 51
What the Experts are Saying
“The media is controlled by people who have the resources to control it,” he says. “Wikis show that all of us have an equal opportunity to contribute to knowledge.”
– Andy Garvin, head of the Digital Divide Network

Ways to Use Wikis
Use wikis as formats for subject guides.
Invite students and teachers to annotate your catalog on a wiki.
Make wikis meeting places for communities inside the school.
Link librarians and teachers in your district in a collaborative enterprise.

NoteMesh
NoteMesh is a free service that allows college students in the same classes to share notes with each other.
It works by creating a wiki for individual classes that users can edit.
Users are free to post their own lecture notes or contribute to existing lecture notes.
The idea is that users in the same class can collaboratively create a definitive source for lecture notes.

CONCLUSION
The best role for the teacher:
“I shall only ask him, not to teach him, and
he shall share the enquiry with me.”
- Socrates
“I know I cannot teach anything,
I can only provide an environment in which someone can learn.”
– Carl Rogers
“The technology is a very poor tool for teaching; its strength lies in supporting learning.”
– Dr. David Hay, the pedagogy of e-learning, 2007 conference.
