The other day in class Lacy was talking to us about our Ethnography projects and making sure we were keeping up with things. So in order to do that she had us do an activity where we wrote down how we were feeling about the project and how we were feeling about gathering information about our project.
So here is what I wrote about my feelings when it came to doing my interviews.......
"When I was getting ready to do my interview I was excited to see what people had to say. Whenever I would ask a question I was excited to hear the person's answer and see if their opinion was similar to mine."
I think being excited about doing interviews, or being excited about gathering information in any form is one of the keys to having a good project. You have to want to put in the work and be happy with what you are doing otherwise that negative attitude will show through when presenting.
Hey Cory. I like your blog post this week because I hate people who go into things with a negative attitude. If you go into something closed minded your results will not be very good. I like that you were excited about doing the interviews and seeing what people thought about the sculptures. I was excited too and because I was, I got positive results in return.
ReplyDeleteYeah I totally agree! A positive outlook can turn around anything. I see this especially in teachers; the best professors are those that are passionate about their subject because the excitement definitely rubs off on the students. :) Also I enjoyed reading your feelings about interviews. I think I would be more nervous than excited! Kudos to you!
