I need to write 10 questions

Questions for the ethnography project

For this discussion, I would like you to do two things.

1. Let me know what subculture you plan on working with

2. Post 10 questions you plan on asking the people you are doing your work with. You will need to post your questions before you can see your peers. After you post look to see what questions your classmates come up with. This can be a great tool to enrich your project.

Think about asking questions about the topics of the chapters we have read or will read. For example " What ritual do you have?" or "Do you do anything for luck?" And yes skateboarders may drink the same drink or wear the same socks for luck and yes these are rituals.

This assignment will allow you to practice an anthropological approach, which includes:

1. Participant-observation: try choosing a subculture for which you can attend an event or a ritual and, ideally have the opportunity to participate in it. If this is not possible, interview your informants in a setting related to their subculture or where their events/traditions take place (e.g. workplace, sacred place, studio, university campus, etc.).

· Open-ended interviews: in addition to making observations, you need to collect your data by interviewing at least two people who are members of this subculture (face-to-face interviews are the best!). Construct questions that allow your informants to provide you with detailed responses. You must devise in-depth questions that are structured around a topic in the outline. Put a lot of careful thought into this. You might find it necessary to interview your informant more than once to collect enough data with which to write your paper.

2. Cross-cultural comparison, holistic perspective, and applying cultural relativism: you’ll be doing this when you address the section and follow instructions in the outline below.

This discussion is worth 10 points to your final project score.
