assignments:
Q1. 1.15. Finish the quote "Counting only gets you so far,
and then you have to _____ "
Answers: 'think'..."make sense of the info; interpret, and
understand your participants on a deeper level; interpret and
understand what the data means; get emotions and interpretations
with mixed methods; use preexisting knowledge to continue a journey;
dig into different layers of meaning; experience a situation
firsthand; investigate real life circumstances; understand
behaviours and see why they occur; ask meaningful questions."
Q2. 1.22. With regard to the 'Humans posts', which is your
favourite and why?
Answers: "The tophat man had a unique
perspective, and it was as simple as being kind. The theme was
joyful. It put me in a better mood just reading it." "Just because
someone is negative toward you does not mean you have to take in the
negativity." "It's easy to fall into the trap of frustration and
matching peoples' energy if they're rude to you, but it's better to
be nice back and spread love." "No one knows what kind of life the
other had ... [and] he does not let negativity affect himself and
gives others opportunity for growth." "The
story about the actor, because it really captures the essence of
'what am I doing with my life, which is very relatable at this point
in my life. It showed he isn't where he wanted to be, and is now
questioning his devotion to his passion. It just felt very human and
very real!" "The story about the man with the kid
was honest and it showed growth. It shows loyalty, commitment, love,
and more." "I can see the loyalty coming through the words he
shared, family is very important and shouldn't be taken for
granted." "You can see how he fought to be a stable father,
something he never had growing up."
Q3. 1.26. In the domestic abuse narratives presentation,
which is your favourite sculpture and why? Answers: force of
nature IIII; wire faeries II; bird carrying man I
Q4. 1.29. For Wed, read the article and comment on the
ethics, RCMP
tracked 89 indigenous activists considered 'threats' for
participating in protests | National Post
Q5. 2.05. What is the advantage of this approach? (rolling
thematic analysis)
Answers: It ensures you cover all the material; the
understanding evolves as the layers are peeled back; it is a
subjective approach that stays close to the facts but without
emotions (?); it is flexible; there is no hypothesis beforehand (its
inductive); it looks at discourse; it looks at 'things', *and their
surroundings; it allows more interpretations; nothing gets missed as
you go through more cycles.
Q6. 2.09. Please watch the video: "The danger of a single
story, Chimamanda," 20mins, and use it to develop a method...
www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9Ihs241zeg
Q7. 2.14. What was surprising, interesting about the 'women
in policing' research. Excuseable but not makeupable.
Q8. 2.16: Which was your favourite photo-voice story/picture,
and why? Excuseable but not makeupable.
Answers: Picking a favourite is impossible, as I see men who
have fallen on hard times and wouldn't be able to comprehend the
hardships they were going to face later in life; I picked Scott
because he had one day of bad luck and now can't find a job; I
picked Paul, because he looks like normal people, and doesn't fit
the stereotype... you can't go around judging; Paul was a working
guy who fell into depression and without resources he lost
everything... we need to do better and stop failing everyone and to
help people not fade away; Paul should have received more help, but
because he doesn't look like the stereotype does that mean we're
less likely to help?; the details of Scott and Paul's stories were
eye-opening, to hear how easy it is for them to lose their housing
because of a situation that is out of their control... people were
given housing during the pandemic, but does that mean we provide
shelter only during a global health emergency?; Scott had a job and
a room but after it was shut down he had no place to stay... it
shows how fast things can change.
Q9. 2.23: In lieu of class, please
send me a short description of what 'subliminal advertising' is,
with an example.
Q10. 3.20: How is the graffiti
evidence of a subculture? Excuseable but not makeupable.
Q11. 3.22: What is your favourite graffiti pic and why?
Excuseable but not makeupable.
proposals:
sites -- 5 pages including titlepage,
refspage, and subtitles; looking at supervised injection sites, and
the public reaction to them; the purpose of the sites is explained,
and how they can reduce harm to the user and the community;
'nimbyism' is proposed as the negative reaction to the sites -- the
2 videos in the opening paragraph should be summarized, and there
should be an overall conclusion; what will the source of information
be, media? overall, good topic, and shows a lot of work, needs more
explicit mention of method. A-16 project: extension; 9
slides, sometimes too much text on slides, eg. #2; there is a lot of
information in the notes, representing some of the issues involved
in SIS; good use of discourse to illustrate opposition; material
could perhaps be spread out over more slides to make for better
readability; overall, excellent, shows a lot of work. A+27
reintegration -- 4 pages,
including titlepage, 2 refs, subtitles; the idea of looking at
released offenders' experiences of attempting to reintegrate is a
good one, however such interviews have probably already been done,
and can be summarized from the literature, otherwise there is a lot
to do to ensure confidentiality, etc; the writing is a bit elusive,
eg. 'transpire', but overall the issue is explained well, it just
needs a different methodology. B+15.5 project: extension; 11
dspaced pages including titlepage, 2 refspages, no subtitles; the
essay begins with a lot of US correctional statistics, where using
Canadian stats would make it more relevant to the Canadian context;
using subtitles would help organize the essay more thematically, eg.
housing, employment, health issues, etc; this reads more like a
corrections text, not one about methodology, and it could use some
personal illustrations to make it more ethnography-like; overall,
needs to align more with the course topic. F14 redo: 10
dspaced pages including titlepage and refspage; there is Canadian
information on incarceration, and subtitles to make the themes stand
out more; the discussion of reintegration is still very
correctionalist oriented, but there is some insight into the
personal challenges facing released inmates achieved using
interviews, etc; looking at some programs and policies which exist
to assist reintegration, along with ex-inmates personal feedback
would round out the project; overall, a good topic, and illustrates
some of the challenges of research. B+23
trauma -- late; 4 pages,
including titlepage, subtitles, and 2 refs; the link between (types
of) childhood trauma and negative adult experiences is explained
well, and raises the question of how that relationship will be
'measured'; more on how this will be studied, perhaps through a
'meta'-review of the research literature?; overall, good topic,
needs more explicit mention of method. B15 project: late
with no extension 4.23; 22 slides with no text in the notes and all
on the slides, which makes for busy slides, and a short essay
component; this is all about trauma, and little about method;
overall, does not fit the course, but could with more mention of how
research was done. D16 redo: 4.27. 20 slides with drawings,
graphs, and minimal text; essay is in the notes; the finding of a
strong relationship between adverse childhood events and
reoffending, and in a prison sentence and reoffending is good; the
slides could be redesigned to be more creative, but the overall
message is clear. B+23/30
quints -- 4 pages with
subtitles, mixed refs, and photos; the issue is how the quints were
treated, as commodities; in addition, storytelling as a way to get
stories will be examined as a 'method' which is constructed and
crystallized through the passing of life events; pictures might be
an important part of this storytelling; overall, this is an
interesting topic, and demonstrates both politics and ethics as
issues; excellent beginning. A17 project: 10 slides with
text in the notes; the focus on ethics in the 'event' and ethics in
the 'research' is interesting, especially since a found narrative
can illustrate both the highs and lows of the experiment; the
overall focus is good, and the narrative angle and its significance
could be expanded more A25
domestic -- 3 sspaced pages
with subtitles, pictures, and extensive refs; the topic of
interpersonal violence is relatively recent, but in a short time
many services have developed to assist them; interviews with
'clients' would clarify the use and availability of those resources,
however interviews have probably already been done and can be
summarized from the literature; overall, this shows a lot of work,
and could clarify the use of method; in addition, perhaps there is a
storytelling angle. B+15.5 project: extension; 18 slides
including titlepage, 2 refspages; the slides have lots of personal
quotations to illustrate the various issues and steps in the process
of coming to deal with the abuse; the length seems a bit short for
the essay component, and could be developed more; overall, well
designed, good use of photos and especially quotations. A-24
res-school -- 4 pages including
subtitles, photos, and mixed refs; the residential school system was
extensive, and so was the harm that was caused; looking at media
interviews with 'survivors' will show how their private experiences
have become a public issue, particularly when it comes to
inter-generational trauma; overall, well-written, and could include
a sample of a survivor's story, as 'storytelling' will be an
important feature of the re-collection of these experiences;
excellent beginning. A17 project: text 6 pages including
refs and titlepage, a bit short for the text writeup, and then put
on the slides, which makes them a bit crowded; having the
first-person accounts of what life was like at the schools is really
illuminating; overall, this is a very important topic, and the
slides are well-designed, and the text is well-organized; excellent
work. A26
rvwade -- 3 sspaced pages, including
titlepage, subtitles, photos, and mixed media refs; the overturning
of r. v. wade was catastrophic for women's rights and planned
parenthood; more on a method from which to centre the controversy
would help strengthen the analysis, maybe look at protests?;
overall, important issue, needs more explicit mention of a method.
A-16 project: 10 slides, including titlepage and refspage;
mixed refs, mostly media, none academic; notes on 7, not equivalent
to an essay; pictures of protests good, needs to spell out more
explicitly what the method is; overall, the essay component is
short, and needs to spell out more how protests are an indicator of
public mood, etc., especially since this has been such an important
transformation in society. C-18 redo 5.08: 13 slides
including titleslide and refsslide; pictures, and minimal text on
slides; protests clearly the topic, both in the US (historical and
current), and in Canada (historical), and it is apparent that they
affected legislation (or at least tried to); the discussion of using
protests as a method is good, especially with the Sierra Leone
example, and the inclusion of the Caravan, and could still be
expanded; excellent work A-24
homeless -- with 3403; 4 sspaced pages
including titlepage, extensive refspage, and 2 pages text with
subtitles and pictures; looking at how the media portrays
homelessness over time is a good topic, and a 'snowball' sample of
articles should provide lots of attitudes, however interviews add a
lot of unnecessary work, as those interviews have probably already
been done and can be retrieved from news articles and academic
analyses; overall, good topic, including samples of 'homeless' talk
would add to the analysis. A-16 project: extension; with
3403; 11 slides including titlepage, refspage, text in the notes,
too much text on the slides; good on the importance of a qualitative
approach, especially interviews; could be longer for two courses,
and the discourse section could be expanded as well; overall,
excellent work. A-24
lewishine -- 2 sspaced pages with
subtitles, pictures, plus mixed refs; looking at the work of lewis
hine and how he documented working conditions is a strong approach
to the topic; the summary of his work and its effect is well-done,
more on the method of 'photo-interpretation' would help strengthen
the analysis; overall, excellent beginning. A17 project:
extension; 13 slides including titlepage, and two refs pages; the
essay component is short, and the photo-interpretation method could
be developed more, especially since the documentation of the
workplace was so extensive, and his pictures so persuasive; overall,
good topic, good method to describe his work, should develop essay
more. B-21/30
lgbt+ -- 5 pages, including titlepage,
subtitles, pictures, and mixed refspage; an intersectional approach
lays the groundwork, and (media?, academic?) interviews will supply
the detail; overall, well organized, researched, and doable,
excellent beginning. A17 project: extension; 14 pg document
including titlepage, and 2 refs pages; good discussion in the text
of intersectionality, experience, legal reform, etc; the method of
discourse analysis is excellent and brings out the feelings of the
subjects; the slides concisely summarize the text, with pictures and
minimal words, and there are also two videos; overall, this shows a
lot of work on an important topic, and the method chosen is well
used to illustrate the topic, excellent work. A+27
chronic -- 3 pages with subtitles,
photos, and refspage; the idea of looking at how seniors handle
chronic illness is good, however it might be possible to find
interviews in the research literature; even if you have access to a
'home', permissions will still have to be negotiated; on the other
hand, even one story might be enough for analysis; overall, good
idea, still needs to be operationalised. A-16 project: late;
9 slides including titlepage, refspage, notes on 5/9 slides, and not
equivalent to an essay; this is a generic look at 'coping with
chronic illness' but is not about method, so finding some personal
stories and accounts might bring it more online with the course
topic. F10 redo: 4.27. 13 slides, including titleslide
and refsslide; slides have pictures, and quite a bit of text on
them, which makes for harder readability, but the theme is easy to
follow; there are several cases, and advice on how to cope; the text
in the notes still looks short, and the text on the slides needs to
be pared down, but overall, good work. B+23
