beainsc 11/25/02
1) Can you think back to your grade school or high school classroom. Were there any
social issues that might have interested an anthropologist? Were there any
problems that an applied anthropologist might have been able to solve? How so?
2) can you think of a problem in an urban setting that an applied anthropologist might
be called on to solve. How do you imagine he or she would go about solving it?
3) can you think of a business context you know well. How might applied anthropoloy
help that business function better? How would the applied anthropologist gather
the information to suggest improvements?

Clarification/Follow-up by rowens19 on 12/08/02 4:35 pm:
(1) When I was a kid in grade school and high school was back in the 1940s and 50s. I believe the educational system was better, not as improved but better taught, and better learned, This should have been maintained and the young people would have a better chance at maintaining financial success.
(2) Environmental problems were in the developmental stage, which had a direct effect on society; this might have been caught earlier. Settlements were primarily in the coastal areas and population was denser around oceans and lakes this caused many of the slum areas to develop as people with higher income moved to less populate areas. A better education toward skills might have helped.
(3) There was much business that could have worked with the lower income families. Training and skills could have been developed on a larger scale and transportation could have been made more available, even special busses for shift workers, setup on time schedules
