Observation Project (WORD)
- Title: Observation - University of Georgia Baseball Game versus Western Carolina
- QUAL8410: Designing Qualitative Research
- Personal Contribution: 33%
- In this project, we practiced one of the data collection methods for qualitative study, observation. We took the condensed fieldnotes when we were in the site and then constructed the expanded fieldnotes after we left the site. We collected the artifacts to support our description in the paper. This was a good practice. I learned the importance of narrowing down the topic before we are at the site as well as the skills to describe the setting, the context and the subjects.
