Goal
The goal of this discussion is for you to learn about one example of contemporary applications of biological anthropology (anthropometry, forensic anthropology, or medical anthropology) and share what you’ve learned with your classmates.
Prompts:
Read one article about a case or example where anthropology was used to investigate or design something. You’ve seen a few examples in the reading. Those sites are also great places to do a keyword search for additional examples. You can also search on any of the following websites for examples. If you aren’t sure, please message me for guidance. Google can work too, it just might take some careful search terms and critical selection of the example you chose.
