A learning objective I have engaged with it this semester was how to become a better field worker. We have used field work all throughout the semester. We have been learning about fieldwork since the beginning of the semester, first with our Interview Essay. In our interview essay we focus on learning what is fieldwork? Why do we studied it? Fieldwork helps us to understand how we can make observations of conversation, interviews, etc. Field working has helped me with learning from real life experiences. It helped me to better communicate, with data collection, and how to conduct interviews. We used field working during the Transcultural Interview Essay and the Field Observation Essay as I mentioned. I’ve engaged with it during both of those essays. In Transcultural essay I had to learn how to interview someone. And in the Field Observation Essay I had to learn how to observe and collect the right data. I’ve developed in this by understanding more fieldwork and becoming a better fieldworker.
