What's a good topic for an anthropology paper?

Question

Hi

Gosh, I hope you can give me some ideas for my paper. I'm studying educational anthropology and must hand in a 20 page paper late December.

I'm very interested in different countries - and their educational systems and therefore hope that you'll give me many interesting topics to choose from. Of course I have a few ideas myself but feel I need some input from others.

So more or less any good topic will do. I would be very grateful for your suggestions.

Many thanks and have a good day

Rita

Answer 3

'How has education progressed in Africa, the birth place of man'. One wouldthink that since it was the birth place of human kind, that education would have progressed there far past where it is today. What happened?

Answer 4

You could write about 'the hidden curriculum' comparing cultural norms with educational systems.

Answer 5

You could write about Anthropology being a subject based solely on theory without facts.

Answer 6

You might try writing about how so many physicists and mathematicians think their educations held them back, screwed them up, and filled their heads with meaningless nonsense.  Start with Einstein, Gamow, Feyman.  There are many others who believe education is getting worse, especially modern education where political correctness is making text books fatter, more expensive and mostly c**p.
