Universities struggle to provide meaningful education and mentorship to Native American students, especially in STEM fields such as archaeology and geography. The Native American Summer Mentorship Program (NASMP) at Utah State University is designed to address Native student retention and representation, and it fosters collaboration between mentors and mentees. In spring 2020, as university instruction went online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, NASMP mentors were faced with adapting hands-on activities and face-to-face interaction to an online format. Using our Water Heritage Anthropological Project as a case study, we show how virtual archaeological, archival, spatial, and anthropological labs can be adapted for online delivery. This approach may be especially useful for reaching students in rural settings but also for engaging students in virtual or remote research in the field sciences.

使用虚拟考古将本地学生与 STEM 研究联系起来

大学努力为美国原住民学生提供有意义的教育和指导,特别是在考古学和地理等 STEM 领域。犹他州立大学的美洲原住民暑期导师计划 (NASMP) 旨在解决原住民学生的保留和代表性问题,并促进导师和学员之间的合作。2020 年春季,由于 COVID-19 大流行,大学教学上线,NASMP 导师面临着将动手活动和面对面互动调整为在线形式。使用我们的水遗产人类学项目作为案例研究,我们展示了虚拟考古、档案、空间和人类学实验室如何适应在线交付。
