The Last Section[edit]

I'm not an anthropology student, but I am an avid reader of this website. The last section about the internet does not read in the same neutral tone as the rest of Wikipedia. It reads like the author is writing a high school English essay, rather than a Wikipedia article. It uses overly fanciful language, such as "The internet is becoming an extension of the expressive dimension of the youth condition." It isn't restating information taken from another source, it's the making broad generalizations with fluffy words, and tellign a story to make a point.

Distuped neutrality[edit]

In the opening part of the article about people who have their cultural identity change more it sounds very opinionated and not at all neutral and unbiased. Particularbeach (talk) 04:15, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, I've added the POV lead template. I've also added Tone as much of the article isn't written in an encyclopedic style (evidenced e.g. by multiple uses of "we"). AVDLCZ (talk) 23:13, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The description section appears to be disorganized, and restating the intro paragraph in a lot of ways. I think that the paragraph about Nation could be given its own section where postcolonial framework of teaching in education could be discussed. I also think that the paragraph after that one could be removed, it uses "we" a lot. Jennlu (talk) 06:14, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Biculturalism[edit]

I think that a section about biculturalism can be added that discusses more about the experiences of people who are split between two or more cultures. Topics include assimilation, acculturation, generational trauma, hybridity. Jennlu (talk) 06:16, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
