I tend to be wordy and not clear, but I still want to keep a very academic style. &nbsp;I will post the paper's instructions below, only read if you feel it would help your editing process. My main goal is clarity, demonstration of knowledge on bolded terms, and correct grammar. If you could just provide suggestions on sentence structure, wording or anything that needs help, it would be much appreciated.&nbsp;<br \/><br \/><span class=\"tx\">P<\/span><span class=\"tx\">ARTICIPANT<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">OBSERVATION:<br \/><br \/><\/span><span class=\"tx\">This assignment gives you the opportunity to study people other than ourselves.You must immerse yourself&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">into four hours of ethnographic research. Pick any four contiguous hours that you are able to completely&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">dedicate to this assignment. You will observe and note who, what, where, when and how people consume&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">media. Please note this assignment is not about asking people&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx f196\">why<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&nbsp;they consume media but about paying&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">careful and close attention to the details&mdash;space, volume, habits, interactions, comments&mdash;that help you try&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">to understand the motivations behind their media-use (or non-use) behaviors. You should be able to answer:&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">Who are the players and what are their roles?&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">Which media sources or products are assigned special importance<\/span><span class=\"tx\">?&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">What rules and rituals&mdash;spoken and unspoken<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&mdash;underlie the behavior you observe?&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">What contradictions and complexities<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&nbsp;do you observe?&nbsp;<\/span><br \/><span class=\"tx\">In addition to your observations, make conclusions about the businesses media companies are in today.&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">Remember from the Wood piece: &ldquo;When clients are confronted with the company&rsquo;s anthropological research,&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">they often discover fundamental differences between the businesses they thought they were in, and the&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">businesses they actually are in.<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&rdquo;&nbsp;<br \/><\/span><br \/><span class=\"tx\">Carefully write up your evaluation in no more than \ufb01ve pages. Your assignment should be in 12-point Times&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">New Roman font with 1-inch margins, double-spaced.&nbsp;Terms from the class and the readings should be&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">used in your analysis and put in&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx f193\">bold<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&nbsp;font in order to reinforce your use of the material. Do not just drop in&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">terms. Be sure to explain how that concept leads to your conclusions. Bring a hard copy to hand in at the&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">beginning of our class meeting on Wednesday, May 25.<\/span><span class=\"tx\">&nbsp;Assignments will be graded based on completeness,&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"tx\">content, use of class material and grammar.<\/span>","price_select":"1","temp_doc_name":"upload_5743c0df951574.02867829.docx","word_count":"1276","subtotal":34.45,"total_amt":34.45,"firstName":"Anika","lastName":"Henanger","lastfour":"4716","exp":"0520","address":"7618 Big Horn Court","city":"Keystone Heights","zip":"32656","state":"FL","country":"United States","transactionReference":"8433456680"}
