Teaching That Tech-Mindset with Dr. Ed Gonzalez-Tennant - Ep 183

Dr. Edward Gonzalez-Tennant has been on the show before talking about some of his research. Now we bring him on to co-host while Paul is out and in this episode we talk about his transition from Florida to Texas and how he's teaching the next generation of archaeologists to think about technology solutions.

New 3D Software for Artifact Documentation and Analysis - Ep 182

Archaeologists have been 3D scanning artifacts for a while now. But, what do you do with those scans? We post them on websites, use them in reports, and try to do some analysis, but, it's not consistent. This new paper from PLOS ONE is from the architects of a new software, Artifact 3D, that intends to take those scans and perform some high-level, detailed, analytical algorithms that are consistent and repeatable. We talk about it on this week's episode.

Gamification of Education with RISC - Ep 181

MEMBERS CHECK YOUR BONUS PAGE FOR A GREAT BONUS SEGMENT!

We talk a lot about how to get archaeologists to learn more outside the field of archaeology in order to better understand archaeology. On this episode we talk to JD Calvelli from the University of Chicago's Center for Radical Innovation and Social Change (RISC) about gamifying the learning of data science. However, this isn't for adults; it's for 4th-6th graders! Adults are able to learn as well, though. Learn something new and do it in a fun way.

Open Source Protocols - Ep 180

On Hedgehogs and Marvelous Minds: A New Technology for Point Data Collection? - Ep 179

We love it when archaeologists look at other technologies that on first glance are not appropriate for archaeology. However, they're willing to give it a try and report on the results! The researches in the article we discuss used an indoor positioning system (IPS) to map an outdoor site in Israel. Their results are encouraging for this emerging technology.
