Interviews and Transcripts

Sounds like a Reality TV show.  Yup, finishing up my interviews and starting my transcripts this week.  WOW!  Totally underestimated the time it would take to write what people said.  It's funny listening back to the conversations and realizing just how funny sound.

Interviews

Began my interviews this week.  1 down a couple more to go.  Now if I could just get myself to start transcribing...

Making Cheese

I'm continuing my participation/observation this week, trying to get some interviews nailed down for next week.  Everything's starting to fall into place to make some cheese....I just hope I have all the right ingredients at the right time!

Jargon

I've been continuing my participating/observing this week and I've really started to pick up on the jargon of the people.  It's quite interesting, just as we've talked in class that certain people almost have their own "language" for what you're researching.  You start listening to not only what they're saying but how they're saying such terms and you notice other people are speaking the same "code".  Very fascinating!
