Directions for Filling out the Archaeology Field Journal: STEP BY STEP For this

Directions for Filling out the Archaeology Field Journal:
STEP BY STEP
For this semester, we will be completing a series of projects located at the back of the textbook
in Appendix A, (and also in a Microsoft Word version online) called “The Archaeology Field
Journal.” The due date will be announced by me in the syllabus and/or on the
“Announcements” page on Canvas (it will be near the end of the semester). When you are
done with the projects, you will scan them and upload them to Canvas as a single document.
DO NOT simply take photos and upload – you will need to use your phone or computer to scan
the pages into a single document. This is very good experience for your future, and to get in
touch with your phone/computer scanning abilities. Also, always remember to READ
DIRECTIONS and USE GOOD PRINTING on the page or TYPE OUT THE PROJECTS (you may type
the written projects, print, and scan them. This is an especially good idea if you have bad
printing).
Here’s how to complete the Archaeology Field Journal:
1. Fill out the signature page, including your 900 number and signature at the bottom.
2. Don’t worry about the “Grading Rubric” page.
3. READ THE INTRODUCTION!!
4. Do Archaeology Project #1 (Draw an Archaeologist).
5. Do Archaeology Project #2 (Describe What Attracts You to Archaeology)
(we did this already in the chat)
6. Do Archaeology Project #3 (Translate Archaeological Jargon)
Here, you only have to do one sentence (not four). This is the sentence to
translate:
“I suggest that to truly understand the spaces with which we exist, we need not
invite non-humans into our ontologies, but rather reincorporate ourselves into
theirs.”
If you do more, that’s okay too!
7. Do Archaeology Project #4 (Planning an Archaeological Project)
This is best done on a separate sheet of paper. Be thorough, and don’t forget
the crew!
8. Do Archaeology Project #5 (Archaeological Survey)
Use a separate sheet of paper to make the map! Follow directions on the page
and also on my YouTube video. NOTE – Online classes do NOT have to figure out
their meters per pace – just simply use your paces to make the map.
9. SKIP Project #6 (On Ground Classes Only!).
10. SKIP Project #7 (On Ground Classes Only!).
11. Do Archaeology Project #8 (Lunch Project)
Follow directions.
12. Do Archaeology Project #9 (Annotated Bibliography)
Follow directions! The Annotated Bibliography will be turned in at a different
module on Canvas. You simply type it in MS Word or Google Docs and when
finished, upload to the “Annotated Bibliography” module. I will also have a
YouTube video up soon to help with common questions.
That’s it! I highly suggest starting this ASAP (or at least after we get to Module 7).7. Do Archaeology Project #4 (Planning an Archaeological Project)
