Chapter 2;

Since this chapter is theory- based, we try to understand how to gather information. Many techniques have been described in your text book, but as it is a practical assignment, it has been made simple to carry out. Thick description is an intense method of describing everyday activity.In this experiment, you have to observe and describe verbal and non- verbal communication. In the initial ten - fifteen minutes of your fieldwork, listen to ( eavesdrop on) a conversation whose participants you can't see. It could be any public place, like a restaurant, park, bus- stop; close enough to hear them but not see them.The next step is to observe from far a conversation you can't hear, like on the other side of the road, or the far end of your campus parking lot.Though you can see them but cannot hear them and yet try to understand the exchange taking place.

Now, after carrying out this activity, comes the written work and the tough part. Write an essay of 300 - 600 words, giving clear details of both the interactions that you observed. Include a description of the participants and the setting in which you observed them. Put in your ideas about what you thought was happening and if you know anything about them. Support your findings with whatever you saw or heard. Further details on page 50 of your text book.
