Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
An overview of efforts to provide online training and educational resource materials in lithic analysis for beginners to intermediate level university students. A CD-ROM entitled Digital Stones was scripted by two of the authors. It presents an interactive introduction to analysis of stone tools (Lohse and Sammons 1998; 1999). The analytical system presented in the CD has been used at Idaho State University as part of standard laboratory and field training for the past decade (Lohse 1998). In the Fall semester of 1999, these materials were used as the basis for a completely online course entitled 'Anthropology 491: Stone Tool Analysis'. This course included online chat rooms with recognised experts in lithic analysis and these conversations are preserved as online documentation. Some aspects of the work have added to a solid foundation for future building of this online lab course. Some aspects need to be drastically revised and others need refinement. The online experience in teaching a hands-on subject has reinforced some concerns expressed for online education in general and has led to some strong conclusions regarding the potential for this type of teaching. | |||||||||
