It is crunch time now! With the deadlines drawing closer for our WA4 and even the final ethnography, it is time to buckle down and make sure that everything is taken care of. After reviewing the notes on the website about where we should be, Samantha and I realized we had a few more things to do before we could just call it quits on the research. We realized that we needed one or two more sets of fieldnotes and that we needed to get one more interview. Since this project has begun we have both been all over the place with ideas and plans to try and make this project the best it can be. Now that time is no longer on our side we finally have a final plan and final research question set. We are both excited at the potential this project has, and where we are going with it. Over the next few days we will be finalizing our research and beginning to code everything and pick it apart piece by piece. Until that time comes, Samantha and I our going to take some more fieldnotes during basketball practices this week and also capture a few photos of myself and other players in action. Then after all of that is taken care of we will conduct our final interview with Coach Sam Walker. These few things are the only remaining puzzle pieces in our ever progressing project. At the end of this week we should have all the information necessary to begin the tedious process of turning our research into an answer, story, media project, and most importantly a great ethnography!
