The subject of social and cultural anthropology is conceived as an introductory study, but comprehensive, to the systematic of contemporary anthropology, focusing on the contributions, theoretical and methodological approaches and areas of cutting edge research in the discipline and its connection to the great problems and processes of the current global socio-cultural reality. This is projected to expand and inform the student competencies in critical knowledge and conceptual tools and techniques to address the complex task of interpreting the diversity, specificity and regularities of contemporary cultural phenomena and their inherent problems, from the perspective of local point of view, a feature of the anthropological discipline.
Contingency plan
1. Modifications in the contents.
There is no change planned in the contents
2. Methodologies
* Teaching methodologies that are maintained:
Objective test
Discussion led
Master session (all of them with adaptation measures to non-face-to-face teaching conditions that are expressed in each case).
Every methodology counts for evaluation, with the exception of 'Master session'
* Teaching methodologies that are modified:
Summary. This is a summary-critic of ethnographic films, which replaces the previous methodology of "Tutored work". It also provides for a measure of adaptation to the conditions of non-attendance. It counts for evaluation
3. Mechanisms for personalized attention to students:
Personalized attention will be carried out individually with respect to the film summary, the material taught in class and the discussions directed when feedback from the student requires it (1 time each week, at least).
In the event of a face-to-face situation, it will take place during the development of the subject tutorials.
In the event of a non-attendance situation, it will take place online (daily), during previously arranged tutoring hours, and via email or Moodle.
For students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from attendance exemption, specific tutorials will be agreed at the beginning of the course, either through Moodle, or arranged electronically via email, and that are compatible with their dedication.
4. Modifications in the evaluation: no changes are foreseen in the percentages of evaluation assigned to each methodology, and even when the film summary replaces the supervised work, it maintains the same percentage of 30% that the latter covered. The ability to synthesis and interpret sociocultural dimensions by the student will be evaluated.
* Observations of evaluation: The forms of evaluation of the methodologies are foreseen depending on the contexts of presence / non-attendance.
5. Modifications of the bibliography or webgraphy:
An introductory title is added to the general bibliography of the subject, and it is communicated that in case of confinement, students will be able to access anthropological texts and articles in the eLibro application, through the UDC Library website.
The web links to the ethnographic films object of summary and evaluation will be provided to the students during the course, either in person, or through Moodle, depending on the face-to-face / non-face-to-face context.
(*)The teaching guide is the document in which the URV publishes the information about all its courses. It is a public document and cannot be modified. Only in exceptional cases can it be revised by the competent agent or duly revised so that it is in line with current legislation.
