ANT 230 WRITING ASSIGNMENT Assignment Description : For this assignment, I ask that you look through the website https://sapiens.org/ , an editorially independent magazine of the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research, and find an article that discusses a topic within biological anthropology. Once you have found an article, you will need to write a short response paper. After providing a short summary of the article, this paper should focus on how you see the article linking to the course, build on or contradict topics we have discussed, comment on the importance of the article, or connect the article to anthropology more generally. These papers should be more than mere summaries of what the reading was about, but should think and discuss the content of the article within the context of our class critically. Chosen articles can discuss a variety of topics important to biological anthropology including (but not limited to): Evolution Biological Variation Bioarchaeology Growth and Development Paleodemography Diet and Nutrition Forensic Anthropology Osteology Primatology Human Adaptation and Plasticity Functional Anatomy Population Genetics Biological Stress and Stress Markers The Biocultural Approach Paleopathology Paleoanthropology Human and Environment Interactions Mortuary Landscapes Mortuary Rituals and Cemetery Organization And many more… Expectations: - Responses should provide a brief summary of the chosen article. - Responses should be 3-5 pages long. - Responses should be written and formatted in accordance with the APA citation style. Any and all quotes and sources included should be cited accordingly. - Responses should have an introduction and conclusion. - Responses should have a thesis statement and clear topic sentences at the start of each paragraph outlining the author’s main points. - Author’s claims are presented with substantial evidence to support their ideas. - Responses should think critically about how the chosen article connects to the course.
