Ethnographic Chart

The age of the subjects is skewed to the right. This suggests that there may be a student(s) with an extreme old age in comparison to the represented subject pool. This is graphically illustrated in the following box-and-whisker plot.

Ethnography tells about a culture and the members that comprise this culture. A definition is the scientific description of the customs and individual people of a culture. The process of doing this assignment allowed me to explore another aspect of a cultural group. I was able to learn extensively about interactions between individuals and how see them as a culture. The group that comprises my ethnography is a cultural group very common to Utah. The culture I focused on was the LDS culture, to be more specific I studied a sub-culture of this group. My subculture was a group of 12 year old adolescents that are a Sunday school class in this culture.

It was The Roaring Twenties and the lively beats of jazz music can be heard pouring out of venues and filled with people eager for the thrill of entertainment. Among this glamour and progress, the lives of Fernando Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti would intertwine irrevocably. The methods that were used to determine their culpability when insight nations in the years to come and reveal a dark side of America that

In spite of Egypt's and Nubia's contentions, they do in fact acknowledge one another's social progress and both cultures believe in allowing blended relational unions. The high authorities and clerics of Egypt had settled in Nubia and assembled their sanctuaries there. A standout amongst the most noteworthy sanctuaries ever constructed amid that time was the sanctuary complex of Soleb. It was constructed under the principle of Amenophis III at around 1360 BC. Under the guideline of Ramses II (I279-I212 BC), a few stone sanctuaries were manufactured like the Abu Simbel.

This is my first time that I come to New York, so I am curious about many things in this new place, such as the famous resorts, and the people here. As we know, the Times Square is very famous in New York. When I was in China, I hope I can visit Times Square, because I saw Times Square was very great in some of the opening of American series. Now, I am in New York, and I have enough chances to visit Times Square whenever I want. In there, it gives me a new horizon to understand the culture that is different from China.

My Family has been supporting me since I was born. When I told my parents and brothers that I was applying to Bethel they were all so excited. My two older Brothers attended Bethel, so they know how great of a school it is. I told my family that I am applying to Bethel because of their great business programs and their godly influence and they were pleased to hear that.

My job as a demographer was to analyze what the current 4551 population needs in terms of local community services. The service that has been chosen will best meet the needs of the 4551 postcode over the next 10-15 years. It is most important to look at population data when making serious planning decisions that will affect the residents of Caloundra because if the postal area has many young families but limited child care centers and school services it may be something to consider placing education centers in the suburb. The five service options which I have been asked to consider were, child care centers and school services for young students, indigenous community centers and multilingual services for those people of different cultures and languages and aged health care services for the retired, but young at heart, needing domestic help.

There is a lot in this chart, however focus your attention to the last three line: percent of cohort who are high achievers, radius to gather 20 high achievers, and radius to gather 50 high achievers. Notice, for the category of percent of cohort who are high achievers, that the people included under high income students

The ethnography I chose to read and write about is “How Musical is Man?” by John Blacking. John Blacking is a famous British anthropologist but he later got trained to be an ethnomusicologist and was a major influential musical figure in history. He often thought that music was “humanly organized sound” and that “no musical style has its own terms but more of the terms of its society and culture. Throughout the book, Blacking made many great points and teaches us in a nonbiased way. In this book, John Blacking discusses the nature of musicality, the role of music in society, learning, and the musical discourse. “How Musical is Man?” is an ethnography on the music of the Venda people of South Africa and how each society views and experiences it.

When preparing for the ethnography experiment, I had to identify what I would be considered an advertisement. As a result, I decided that an advertisement must be a message that inform or influence people to consume a company products or services. Keeping that definition with me , I encountered various versions of advertisements, like banners, build boards, fliers, and social media post. In addition, I even realized that the shirt that I wore to school, which was a CAL shirt, could be considered an advertisement. Today, I will be talking about my experience with observing advertisement in my day to day life.

It is the first time for me to use the function “stories” on Instagram, and I plan to make the new post every day, so to create an illusion of my personality, see how my friends react. I will use the experience as an example to discuss more, mainly focusing on self-representations as well as identity constructions (gender identity) through popular culture. Day 1, I chose the photo that described part of a research paper as my first post. When I am selecting which parts are useful, I tend to find sometimes complicated.

Ethnography is the study of human groups, seeking to understand how they collectively form and maintain a culture (Marshall, C., & Rossman, G., 2016, p. 17). There are few different types of ethnography such as critical and postcritical, internet/virtual, autoethnography, and more. Critical ethnography is grounded in the theories assuming that society is structured by class and status as well as by race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation to maintain the oppression of marginalized groups (Marshall, et al., 2016, p. 23). Postcritical ethnography incorporates postmodern perspectives (Marshall, et al., 2016, p.24). Internet/Virtual ethnography identifies the World Wide Web as socially constructed virtual worlds that can be researched

First off, I was not allowed to interact with anybody during my ethnography. This was a challenge since I really wanted to take the time to talk with people who were reading the mementos. I had this interest in wanting to learn about what they thought about the memento and if they knew the person. I felt that the lack of communication prevented me from learning as much as I can. In addition, the time limit of twenty or thirty minutes made me rush throughout the walk. I felt that there were many more things I could have paid attention to and taken more notes on, but I could not afford to spend lots of time on only a few things. Lastly, I wish I would have done the walking ethnography on a time where there would be more people walking around.

I was born into a family with two theistic religions. My father’s side was Catholic, while my mother’s side was Buddhist. Neither side was devoutly religious or pious, so they didn’t force their religions onto me. However, I did go to churches, temples, and bible studies a lot. Not because my parents or family members forced me to, but because I was a curious child and I liked being exposed to new knowledge and different things.

From the chart, we can see that most of our samples are made up of people of age 18 – 24, which made up of almost 95.24% (40 out of 42) of our samples. There are only 2.38% (1 out of 42) of the samples are aged between 25 to 34 and another 2.38% (1 out of 42) is from the age group of 75 or older.
