this week we had to read our professors paper on her interviewing people at her site when she did this project when she was younger. I found it very interesting the way it was written because it was so informal and yet not at the same time. You felt like you were there with all the description in it. It was informal on the count that it was referring to everyone by first name and had her own thoughts. Yet, I couldn't help but think it formal because of how well written it was and descriptive. With that said I am looking forward to doing my interviews at my observation site and getting to know the background to planet fitness much like my professor got to know of the bowling alley.
This week we also did class presentations and mine didn't go so well most likely because instead of working on it in class I was trying to upload this video onto youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a54zpqtLtyc its pretty cool but didn't help my grade at all.
I agree with Mitchell on the fact that the way the paper was written was very interesting. It was written informally yes, but it was written in a narrative storylike way. It made it easier to follow and a lot easier to picture what is going on in your head. The descriptive writing made this able to happen.
