Week 5

Part of my plan in finishing my mini-ethnography is to use research from other papers I've written for the class to aid in the writing process.  I know I need to conduct more interviews in order to get perspectives on my subculture, Cru.  I also plan to give out a few surveys and use the results from those in my writing.  I've attended every meeting Cru has had this semester and have observed while attending.  I should definitely do more in depth research rather than just observing and interviewing.  I plan on using a book I've checked-out from the library to assist in my research of the history of Cru.  I'm finding it a little difficult to find articles from databases specifically centered on Cru.  I'm hoping to obtain and find more valuable information from other sources, such as Cru's International website and Cru staff members.

I am curious about the research portfolio we are to create.  We haven't talked much about it and I would like to know if we should begin creating our portfolio's now.
