Anthropology 1A03
This is my first social science course ever ( X[ ), so I was wondering how specific the evaluations for this course usually are.
Like, would I need to understand what specific people contributed to different concepts or would I only need a general idea?
Also, would I need to know specific examples? For those who know what I am talking about, ex. the Tiwi of Northern Australia use foraging to sustain life.
I'm asking all of this because the professor isn't stating anything for the upcoming quiz and I am really weak in this area. T_T
Thank you.

ditto - do we have to know the different theories and their proponents, etc? or just the name and general idea?
and how specific do we need to be about the stuff from the textbook, like the different types of argiculture?

Ask your TA in tutorial, or ask your Prof.
Arratia teaches the course differently than previous profs...and because each year is different we can't really say...

Anyone here in the 1A03 evening section? We have a book review due Oct. 1 and I was wondering what format (e.g MLA, APA) it is to be written in. Thanks.

From your syllabus: "Guidelines for the reviews will be provided in class."
