Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to identify common patterns of social behaviors within a specific social event or a social setting. Your writing will illustrate your ability to interpret social interactions using the content from units 1-4.
Activity: Conduct a participant observation procedure by observing a group/social event. The event could be a trip to a theme park, enjoying a play at a theater, or a dinner with family at a restaurant. It could also be attending a religious gathering, hanging out with friends at a coffee shop, attending a sports event like a baseball or a basketball game, celebrating a cultural holiday, or attending a meeting at your workplace. This is NOT a reflection of a past event. the observation of behaviors must be conducted within 2 weeks of the deadline.
First, write a few sentences about the activity itself including what the event was, how long it was, and why you chose it. Next, summarize your observations and describe any behaviors that stand out. Discuss your thoughts on the common social interaction patterns between the people. Your writing should illustrate how the observation activity facilitated your understanding of human behaviors. You should use 2-3 relevant concepts from at least two different chapters from Units 1-4. The paper should 2-3 completed pages, excluding the title and the references pages.
