Broader Impacts and Teaching: Engaging with Diverse Audiences
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 86th Annual Meeting, Online (2021)
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Broader Impacts and Teaching: Engaging with Diverse Audiences" at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
Archaeology education reaches beyond the classroom, into the public sphere, and affects diverse audiences. To make archaeology relevant today, we must connect with students, members of the public, and policy makers. These audiences bring a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. To have a greater impact on diverse audiences, we must take their lived experiences, knowledge, and interests into account and broaden our teaching methods. This symposium discusses various experiences, case studies, and best practices for reaching diverse audiences.
