<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">The seminar offers an account of my journey into the anthropology of craftwork and deliberations on the apprentice-style method that I developed and employed in studies with
masons, woodworkers and a multimedia artist. Training alongside the craftspeople I study has been key to my discoveries about the ways we as humans learn and become enskilled (and deskilled). My presentation revisits main findings from fieldwork in West Africa,
Arabia and London and critically examines the evolving research questions and methods that defined not only what I was seeking but also how I went about finding it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">Apprenticing as a technique of anthropological inquiry is well suited to the study of learning and knowing in practice-based contexts where talking is often upstaged by doing.
It also equips anthropologists with first-hand experience – and possibly some level of expertise – in the practices and site politics that they theorise and write about. However, apprenticing as an anthropological method also has its challenges, which we will
explore this week. Our exploration of methods, potential benefits and challenges will be grounded in the experiences and projects of workshop participants.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
