anthropology teaching education philosophy meaning critique

And when I teach, I believe it is my responsibility to convey the reality of a world where there are other ways of thinking and other ways of doing. In an effort to achieve that goal, I will with great happiness and gusto deconstuct American popular culture with my students to try to tease out our meanings and ways of being. But in the end, I want them to move beyond our world and embrace "the other".
But what is the line between motivation and pandering?

- One of Wesch's assertions is that you can learn more by "doing" than by studying/reading/attending lecture? I certainly can't agree with that. I was barely ready for participant observation after an intensive undergraduate experience and three years of graduate course work. I can't tell if these students view participant observation as just an excuse to have a good time or they actually come to understand that its ultimate purpose is analytical. You don't learn from an experiential moment, unless, you have done the ground work. Wesch, clearly, gets it when he discusses digital ethnography but then he has done his ground work, hasn't he? What, exactly, do the students learn about anthropology?
- the changes to our brain when we abandon "deep reading" in favor of "power browsing". Students should be encouraged to do some deep thinking and not "pancake" processing.
- Do some deep reading of Gramschi and fight the hegemonization of a capitalist agenda for education.
- Isn't the purpose of anthropology to expose these inequalities not reinforce a world of our own making? And youtube may be a global phenomenon but only for those in a global elite.

hermeneutics analysis research meaning

These advocates of differential hermeneutics maintain that “meaning” need not be defined in terms of authorial intention
the meaning of a text is radically underdetermined

- Texts present their interpreters with nothing but face value; from this face, interpreters propose varying expansions, illuminations, enhancements, clarifications—but these belong not to the meaning of the text, but to the interpreter’s imagined sense of what the text means.
