This sample course assignment was developed by Dr. Shannon Tushingham for her graduate seminar in Cultural Resource Management (ANTH 535). This is one of several graded assignments that are explicitly incorporated to develop graduate student mastery in public archaeology education and dissemination skills by exposing them to creative public communication projects, activities, and discussions. This particular project is given early in the course, and tasks students with defining project-specific communities and publics. This and later course assignments are designed to promote extensive group discussion and reflection about research engagement, ethics, and practices. This assignment is cited in the paper, Public Archaeology Education “Of the People, For the People, By the People”: Democratized Science Communication in Theory and Practice”, 2021 paper in press by Shannon Tushingham and Tiffany Fulkerson, in a special issue of the Journal of Northwest Anthropology entitled Do We Reach More? Essays on Sharing Cultural and Archaeological Research.
