Due to the fire drill planned for 9:35 tomorrow, we will have to expedite our test.
Thanks to Tommy for reminding me to post the following:
Conveying your Cultural Tourist Findings
This assignment is conceptual more than it is structural or linguistic.
As such, you may choose to format it
variously.
·
If you think pictures alongside short captions is the
best way, please feel free to do it that way.
·
If you’d like to divide your ideas by headings and
subheadings or by using a flow chart that is fine.
·
If you’d like to write a very short (not more than two
pages) summary of your experience/findings/thoughts that is fine.
·
If you’d like to write it like an anthropologist or a travelogue
that might be fun.
What
I NEED to SEE CLEARLY OUTLINED ARE:
·
What is being enacted
and how is it happening? Help me “see/hear/smell/taste/touch” it.
·
What Story/premise/axiom
seems to be the underpinning of this enactment/behaviour? (this may link to
what is/is not valued/seen as obvious and “correct/incorrect”)=Mother Culture.
·
How does it create/effect Culture- who the community sees itself as?
·
Assess possible benefits/detriments of this aspect of
the culture as you are interpreting it.
·
Is there anything in your observations that surprised
you or that you saw in a new way as a result of being a cultural tourist in
your own spaces?
Cheers,
Ms. S
