Nicholas David: Teaching
The following materials may be of use to some as a source of references and ideas on teaching or taking some of the courses for which I was formerly responsible. Be aware that this stuff is primarily of historical interest!
Undergraduate
Courses for which I wa once responsible include:
Junior undergraduate course: 205: Ancient Peoples and Places
(World prehistory from Australopithecus to the first
civilizations in both Old and New Worlds or, in other and
better words, Descent to Civilization).
Senior undergraduate courses: 307: Ethnoarchaeology; 471: Ceramic
analysis; 395: African archaeology;
399: Ethnohistory of Africa ; 501: Problems
in Archaeology (seminar course involving study of simulated
archaeological problems)
You can link to the most recent outlines of ARKY 205 and ARKY 307 in .pdf format
