ini-paper 1: Ethnography
This 2-4page mini-paper is the first step to writing your term paper. In this short essay you will conduct and analyze fieldwork. This entails three steps: conducting fieldwork, writing fieldnotes, then analyzing your data to make claims about the culture you’ve observed. 1) spend several hours observing a cultural group to which you have access (the best way is to be a member of the group); 2) take detailed notes describing everything you observe; 3) use critical tools for ethnographic inquiry (analyze performances, language, rituals, symbols, hierarchies, expressions, etc.)
*CUT AND PASTE THESE INSTRUCTIONS INTO YOUR PAPER* EACH HEADING SHOULD BE PRESENT IN YOUR PAPER
1) Introduction: set the scene and state your thesis: What is your main argument? Preview your two main points. Your analysis should deal with key issues of the course (power, identity, culture)? [1-2 paragraphs] 2) Describe your culture and focus on a detailed specific scene or event from your fieldnotes. Assume your reader doesn’t know anything about it, so spend a paragraph just describing the group you are analyzing and a specific incident or interaction. Give the reader sensorial details that help your reader ‘picture’ the culture. Consider evoking multiple senses (smell, touch, taste, sight, sound). [1-2 paragraph] 3) Analyze cultural performances (uses of language, ritual, etc.). Be sure to provide evidence and examples from the your fieldnotes to support your argument. [the bulk of your paper is here about a page] 4) Incorporate at least one concept from the reading (culture, performance of identity, the body, etc.—any concept, you choose!). Define and apply the concept to your critical reading of the text. Cite the reading using MLA format. [2 paras] 5) Conclusion: restate thesis; review two main points.
