Field Observation Report

I sat next to six females and two males who were all sitting by themselves in the library. I encountered a variety of reactions but saw similarities in most of them. Just as I expected some subjects were on their phones others did not pay much if any attention to my presence but that is not to say that no reactions surprised me. The frequency of different reactions was low all eight subjects checked their phones or used it in some way and all expressed some form of awkwardness by glancing at me instead of making direct eye contact. Six of the eight kept to themselves and never fully acknowledge my presence except when they moved their belongings over closer to themselves after I sat down. There were three reactions that surprised me the most for they went against my initial expectations. After sitting next to a male subject he did what most subjects did, he moved his things and shifted around a bit in his seat but instead of continuing his work or going on his phone he instead got up and left. The two other reactions both came from female subjects at different times. First I went ahead and sat next to the girl and she looked at me and smiled, after a few glances and looking at her phone she began to talk to me and stopped doing her work. A couple of subjects after her also glanced over at me from time to time but they either went back to doing their work or remained on their

Western State had peaked my interest when I first made the visit to the campus my Junior year of high school. Around the time I was considering which college would be best for me. When first entering the town of Gunnison I realized all of the potential outdoor activates that I could partaken. Being a Colorado Native outdoor actives have always been a big part of my life. During my visit I enjoyed hearing about what the campus had to offer, from small classes that would provide more one on one interaction from the professors. An added bonus western offers my intended major. I also loved how many of the students never want to leave campus. I also really enjoyed what western had to offer on campus whether that was clubs, sports, or outdoor trips

The field work that I have done was at the Foundation daycare between 9am and 10:30 am. The daycare is next to the Shaar Hashomayim on Metcalfe and Kensington Avenue in Westmount (o). When I first went to the school I went through the courtyard which had cemented pillars and archways (O) as well as a row of plastic play houses of a variety of colours and sizes (O). The doors are all locked therefore I had to ring the Foundation school doorbell (O). The school has 2 stories (O); the first story is where the daycare (O) is and the second floor is where the elementary school (O) is located. There are 6 classrooms (O) and each classroom has a specific age group (O). While walking to the classroom, there are rows of cubbies and hooks along the walls

On Tuesday, the 9th of May, 2017 at approximately midnight I was patrolling East on Hastings Road, approaching Martin Bluff Road when I noticed a vehicle with a headlight out traveling West on Hastings on the opposite side of Martin Bluff.

Many of us learn to make careful field observations while at school or university, but in my case, note taking in the field began at a much earlier age. Because there was no school nearby, and my mother was a trained artist and art teacher, my first lessons from her were not in reading and writing but in drawing from life.

On a cool, slightly windy evening in the beginning of April I was able to visit the Islamic Center of Johnson County. The unassuming building lacks characteristics one often associates with mosques, or even churches, or synagogues; if not for the sign indicating what is was I would have missed it. In 2002 it was decided due to the increasing number of Sunni Muslims moving to the suburbs that a closer, more convenient center of worship and education was needed since the next closest one was Kansas City, Missouri, just under twenty miles away. So in 2003 a building was purchased and at 9001 W 151st Street in Overland Park Kansas, the Islamic Center of Johnson County was officially made. After contacting the ICJC a few days prior, they invited me to observe Asr or their early evening prayer which on April 3, was at 6:05pm, though I arrived earlier and stayed later to ask questions; around seventy five minutes I’d say. An interesting side note, when I asked about what to wear, nothing was said about wearing a hijab or any sort of head covering. Nevertheless I wore a head scarf because I wanted to show as respect as I could and minimize my disturbance. My mother was gracious enough to come with me; she had

Although many other previous studies have demonstrated the misattribution of arousal effect, our experiment was unable to replicate this finding that arousal causes an increase in sexual attraction. The first component of our hypothesis, that participants in one of the emotional arousal conditions would rate the profiles as more attractive than the control group, was not supported by our findings. Further, we were unable to explore the interaction effect between group and gender because we did not have enough male participants in our study. Therefore we are unable to make any conclusions about whether the different emotional arousal conditions differentially affected males versus females.

This is a follow up to a letter that I sent a couple of days ago pertaining to Sgt. La David Johnson who was missing for two days before being found dead. Mind you being found by Nigerian troops not our own troops.

My first day of observations had finally arrived. Filled with excitement, I opened the doors to Pleasant Ridge Elementary School, and walked into the front office to sign in as a guest for the day. I made my way to the second grade wing to do my first observation for my field experience report. The second grade instructor greeted me as I entered her classroom, with a big bright smile I found made her classroom warm and inviting.

On March 18, 2017, I began the first component of my observation assignment. In contemplating where I was to do my observation, I wanted to find a location with a lot of people, a location that was indoors, and a location that would provide me with a wide point of observation that would allow me to peacefully and conspicuously observe people while taking notes in my notebook. As a result, I decided on the second floor above the lounge area in the Santa Anita mall, located in Arcadia, CA, on a Saturday afternoon. Prior to beginning my observation, I did not expect to be nervous, but as soon as I parked in the parking lot and began making my way to my observation point with my notebook and pens clenched in my hand, feelings of nervousness

By doing this, it helps her not jump to conclusions about their performance and in turn, it helps her handle situations with less stress. For example, on the day that I went to their practice, there was one infielder that kept booting balls that were being hit to her. When infield was done taking defense, Coach Payette walked with the struggling player up to the cages. She was talking with her, not about her performance, but about her day leading up to practice. It turns out that the player was having a stressful day as she had a project due later that night for her class that she had not finished. Instead of having the player continue with practice, she told her go and finish her

-What did you observe in the first time period? (give brief description of the topic and what you observed)

I believe that doing field experience is very beneficial to students prior to starting the education program, it can help them see what it's like to be a teacher, and even get some experience in a classroom. Completing 20 hours in a classroom, you get to see how you connect to students, what it will be like after you become a teacher, and even help you decide if this is right for you. After my experiences, I learned a lot about my placement school, how what we learned in this class can be really beneficial, and how being in a classroom/becoming a teacher will affect me.

As I was leaving the high school to shadow Terry Mc Intosh, I was eager to experience cattle nutrition on small family dairies. Terry had told me he doesn’t work as much as he had so I assumed he did private consulting—a few minutes into meeting with Terry in Homedale and a firm handshake later my assumptions were confirmed. I got into his pickup and awaited the awesome job shadow to come.
