    Anthropology is the study of humanity and human cultures. It has four main fields: physical/biological anthropology which studies human origins and development; cultural/social anthropology which examines facets of culture like religion and language; linguistics which focuses on language and communication; and archaeology which studies material remains to understand cultural evolution. Anthropology is relevant to education since learning and the pursuit of knowledge are central to human cultures and their development over time. Culture is learned and transmitted between generations through both oral and written forms of communication like legends, songs, and folklore.

    Anthropology and Education
    • Anthropology is the study of culture and its people. Education at its
    core refers to the pursuit of knowledge. Since inherent learning
    structures are a part of anthropology in terms of human development.
    Then Education can be considered a primary feature of people and
    their culture. In other words, without education, there would be no
    possibility for people to persist in their cultural development and less
    there would be less emphasis on studying cultural trends. 
    Concept and Characteristics of Culture
    • Culture is learned
    • People have varied Culture
    • Culture is a group product
    • Culture is transmitted to generation to generation
    • Culture is adaptive
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF LANGUAGE 
    What is Language?
    A body of words and the systems for their use common to a people
    who are the same community or nation.

    "Language is a purely human and non-instinctive


    "Language is a set of sounds with a particular method of communicating ideas, emotions and
    meaning attached to each sound" (Horton and drives by means of a system of voluntarily produced
    Hunt, 1980) symbols" (Santico and Panopio)

    Language is not only a collection of sounds and utterances; it involves a set


    of rules regarding pronunciation, grammar and semantics used in speech.
    Body Language
    Signs
    is a significant aspect of modern
    communications and relationships. It is also
    the exchange of meanings through gestures
    and body movements.

    A language whether primitive, pre-literate or


    modern-should possess grammar, syntax,
    phonetics, vocabulary, among other things.
    Oral and Written
    Language
    •Among developing countries of
    the world, legends, songs, dances
    and folklore are transmitted from
    one generation to another by
    means of word of mouth (oral
    language)
    •  The art of writing was developed
    much later.
    •  Writing has become the written
    language of both ancient and
    modern cultures of the world.
