via e-list for Council on Education and Anthropology:
texts for EdAnthro courses... I just received a copy of a reader compiled and edited by Prof David Hodges "The Anthropology of Education: Classic Readings," published by University Readers.. It has introductory notes to each section, and excerpts from all of our favourites - Kluckhohn, Spindler, Benedict, Jules Henry, Mead, Illich, Freire, etc. The excerpts are not long, and the introductions are accessible.

Chimps May Mourn Lost Ones, Study Suggests
Deciphering what death means to chimpanzees has always been difficult, as they usually die without a human witness. Two new papers in Current Biology offer a glimpse into the minds of chimps as they confront death. In one case, when an older matriarch died, the researcher says the chimps were subdued for several weeks after she passed.[National Public Radio on 26 April 2010]
