The case study allowed me to practice the scientific method for the first time in two and a half years. After talking to the anthropologists, I also realized that scientists are not the only people who approach a question in a systematic method – so do anthropologists (and other humanities scholars). This week’s in-class activity drove home a point for me – that scientists are not always right. Without the anthropologists’ contributions, scientists would have not been able to arrive at the conclusion they got. The same goes for the anthropologists – they needed scientists’ help to confirm their suspicions. Through this exercise, I’ve confirmed my opinion that scientists and humanities scholars need to stop discounting each other and work together instead.
