Description
For this assignment, you will conduct a Mini Ethnography of a place. Visit a cultural center you have never visited before. Keep in mind that almost anything can serve as a site of cultural activity including restaurants, places of worship outside of your faith community, parks, or stores catering to specific cultural communities (i.e., specializing in crafts or a specific kind of sport). Draft a document of 400-500 words reflecting on your experience.
Using techniques from ethnographic research, be sure to include the following in your reflection:
- What did you notice first and why?
- Describe the cultural center itself as well as the people frequenting the site.
- Describe one unique element of the cultural center. Why was this element unique to you?
- Describe one element you have in common with those who frequented the cultural site during your visit.
- Did you feel uncomfortable or out of place? If so, why? If not, why not?
