CHAIR: MESSING, Jacqueline (USF)

ABSTRACT: This panel includes several undergraduate students from the University of South Florida's Anthropology program and their mentor. We will discuss the teaching of
linquistic anthropology and applied linquistics in the classroom, including ideas for a variety of "real-world" research projects. The students wrote ethnographic papers based on
their own research for a course on "Language and Culture" and then served as peer editors, to produce a special issue of USF's Journal of Undergraduate Research. This journal
showcased fourteen students, ethnographic research papers, including studies of lanquage as it relates to: health and community, identity, linquistic variation, archeology,
religion, technology, and deaf culture.
