Directions for 4-6 page Assignment in APA format:

Choose a time and location for where/when you are going to conduct your observations of an ethnographic scene (mall, public transportation, coffee shop, etc.).
Go to the specified location and proceed with your observations. Find a place to sit quietly and to simply watch what is going on. Do not talk to or interview people during this time.
Take notes. Include details about the scene itself (time of day, lighting, furniture, plants, sounds, temperature, smell, vibe/energy, etc), details about the people around you (their characteristics, their behavior).
When your 25 minutes are finished, leave the scene. In a quiet place, fill out your notes. At this time, you should start to think about anthropological concepts that fit with your observations. This step is critical.
