We look at different educational projects, such as Indian boarding Schools, English-only laws, the "indirect rule" of the British colonies. We address the not-always-clear line between education as a form of social control or as a form of liberation.

ANTH108 . 1 Year, 8 Months Ago

Class I took isn't listed (Activist Anthropology) beware: For SJW's only. Entire class is based off of strong subjective opinions. Take the course if you'd like to visit crazy town.

ANTH108 . 2 Years Ago

I believe this was Professor Saldivar's first quarter at UCSB but she was great! The grade was based on weekly journals (300 words) based on the weekly readings, a final essay (out of class), and a presentation on one of the readings. She's an easy grader and cares a lot about the topics she teaches. She loves having conversations with students.

ANTH113 . 8 Months Ago

Professor showed up 15 minutes late to class, took out an orange ball and had us toss it around the room and introduce ourselves. The class was hectic. She said that her class on research was all about multitasking. Even though multitasking as a concept has been disproven by research. Her teaching style was too unstructured for me, personally.

ANTH113 . 11 Months Ago

Dr. Saldivar is an amazing professor. I have taken a few of her anthropology courses. She is very knowledgable and inspiring. She is one of the best and kindest professors at UCSB. I highly recommend taking her courses. They are very interesting and really open up your perspective on various topics from pedagogy to cultural anthropology topics.

ANTH113 . 2 Years Ago

This class was super easy and the professor is so sweet. I would recommend taking her course because homework is light and no exams, just a presentation and short final paper. She accepts late work and all you really have to do to get an A is not miss too many assignments. Assignment criteria is not always clear, but require minimal effort for an A
