12November 12, 2020All day: Your ResearchNovember 9-20, 2020 All day mini-ethnography work. Deadlines TBA based on your goals All day: Watch video in PerusallNovember 12, 2020 All day Watch Mike Wesch's talk called "An Anthropological Introduction to YouTube." Comment in Perusall. I want to use Wesch’s talk as an example of how to do this research. Notice how he and his students collected data (in his case, YouTube videos), created categories of that data (sorting the videos into remixes, vlogs, etc), and then made claims about what is happening on YouTube and how it changed our literacies. I’ve always thought it would be cool to update his research: what would we add to the categories and literacies of YouTube now? Comment in Perusall as you watch, particularly noticing how you might use his insights and research example to do your own research and data collection. You can also leave questions for me about our project as you’re commenting on his video. The video is 55 minutes long, so make a plan for that. I promise that portions will make you smile; lots of videos he uses in his data that you’ve never seen or forgot about most likely. |
