Library Tour
Ms. Katie's tour around the library gave me a wider idea on who I should be using the library. For instance, I never knew about the Alaskana room's books were not able to be checked out. I also enjoyed touring for a little bit because Ms. Katie is really informative. (Drill in?!)
Ms. Angeli
She was funny (salsa?!) I learned more informations from her that Ms. Marie has talked about, but she went deeper.
Tonights Reading
First of all, I learned that to read the article, you need to use a little bit of a help from the dictionary. I found some words that I did not know the meaning such as, persona, deception, and others. Second of all, I learned a new word Ethnographers. From this article I learned a bunch of new information about collecting data. You have to record as much as possible! You need a lot! When you are taking notes, it is crucial that you write them down immediately so that you won't forget any of the details you will need. Finally, I found that using electronics vs writing is arguable. When you use a device and not take notes, you can not record the smell and things you can see. If you use a sound recorder, you can not see the physical movement, body language and the rest from the top. So from this electronic devices are not always the best choice.
Overall, from my understanding of the first part of the article it is providing me with a lot of advices about using powered devices and how they could ruin an interview. Remember older is always better!
Yeah, I was really fascinated by what each little thing can do like what you said. You can take very literal things by recording but you can't capture as much emotion into it as you can by writing everything down.
ReplyDeleteWow, you described most everything in a lot of detail.
ReplyDeleteIt is true that older is better. Those are some good thoughts about the reading. And I was a bit confused about the new words though.
ReplyDeleteWow! I like the way you inform the readers who read your blog. You even gave advices from the ethnography to the readers! Great job!
ReplyDeleteI like the structure of your post, the way you respond to each specific part of class and the reading. It helped me to understand your responses to the class more fully. The Ethnography reading was a lot about learning new vocabulary, so I'm glad you had your dictionary in hand. "Remember, older is always better" - that's a nice truism!
