- OCM (Outline of
Cultural Materials) is a standardized system of numbered cultural
categories for classifying your language and culture field notes and other
data. It is available in the LinguaLinks workshops as a classifying list for
lexical entries and the data notebook prototype system. The OCM is also
available in the Anthropology bookshelf as a read-only resource that you can
use now to categorize and access your data in whatever form you keep it.
- The module
Using
the OCM describes the OCM and explains what you can do with it.
- Cultural anthropology
is an introductory textbook written by a Christian anthropologist, Paul G.
Hiebert, for the general North American college or university audience. It is
included in the Anthropology bookshelf so that you can read and review basic
cultural concepts, vocabulary, and research ideas. You can apply these to your
own situation as well as profit from Hiebert's many examples and case studies.
The Anthropology workshop in future versions of LinguaLinks will develop the
links from Hiebert's chapter topics to the other workshops and their research
and data management tools. To see the subheadings of each chapter, click the
Contents button on the sidebar and expand the entry Cultural Anthropology
by double-clicking the plus sign beside it. Double-click any title to go to
that material itself.
- Purnell's
Language
and culture learning program for independent learners, is a practical guide
for your research in any field situation, developed by Herbert Purnell, a
specialist in second language acquisition. Purnell's work has been adapted for
use as an additional resource on both the Anthropology and the Language
Learning bookshelves.
- Notes on Anthropology and
Intercultural Community Work (NOA) is a quarterly publication of the
Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL). It includes articles, book reviews,
comments, and other culturally related information. This material is usually,
but not always, authored by SIL people. NOA is included in the bookshelf
as a source of information, ideas, research results, and book reviews on a wide
variety of cultural topics and areas of the world. Click and browse the
complete set of back issues from 1985 through May 1997. New issues of
NOA will be added to all upgrades of the LinguaLinks Library, and an
index by author, title, area, and topical keywords is planned for future
versions.
