Summary:
It is the contention of this paper that in the future more and more students in the undergraduate survey courses will be introduced to Anthropology; concomitantly students approaching teaching in the field of Social Studies are doing so with a background of anthropology. Anthropology's growth has precipitated its incorporation in undergraduate requirements for students majoring in Social Science and Education. This paper will explore the ways in which anthropology has established inroads in education and their importance to future developments in our school systems. A review of anthropological theories of educational systems is combined with the problems or restrictions facing an Anthropological Education liaison. In conclusion we centered discussion on whether or not anthropologists can change the school systems with an explanation of ACSP and NSF projects produced under their auspices.
