Fieldworkers take many and intricate notes when studying their subject. The girl they talked about, Amy, had many different observations. Reading about what she wrote and thought about gave me ideas. It showed me how I can take notes and what is essential to pay attention to. Seeing this first-hand experience showed me things that will help overall in my final mini-ethnography paper.
I have a thought to what I will take notes on and what I expect to see and write down. I will also use the freewrite to help organize my thoughts after I am done writing down what I feel is necessary. This is a good way to utilize the freewrite. The underlife mentioning gave me a dark and sinister thought. But after reading further it intrigued me instead. I never completely analyzed all that goes into a simple class and the small little things within it. The pen scratching, people sleeping, talkers, zippers and many other small things. Some of the things I have picked up on just by sitting in class without thinking about it, such as scholastic kids sitting in front.
