SO308 Principles of Social Research Data Analysis 4: Interview Directions: Choose one participant that will agree to an administration of the interview schedule. Find a quiet and comfortable place that sets your participant as ease. Remember not to deviate from the set interview schedule (although you can give minimal responses to requests for clarification or use neutral prompts or probes to get them going or keep them on track). Give your participant a pseudonym and record no information that could lead to their unique identification. Take detailed and exhaustive notes! Record everything because you may not realize that something is important until after the fact. Remember that the purpose of these content analyses is to gather data about how members of different groups think about, talk about, behave toward, or otherwise respond to another. You don’t have to record information that does not pertain to our purpose, but do record everything that may shed light on our research topic! Take detailed notes during the interview. Include what they said and how they said it [important body language, pauses, and other non-verbal expressions should be noted in square brackets]. Find a quite place as soon after the interview is concluded to record your notes into this form. Clean your notes by removing your shorthand and explaining every detail. Remember that these notes need to be understandable on their own. Include everything and add additional details as you recall them. When you add detail after the fact in this first pass, use “Bright Green” text to distinguish it from your first observations. Then set your notes aside for about 24 hours so that you can think about them some more. Make a third pass through your notes and use “Blue” text to distinguish these subsequent reflections from your first observations and your initial additions. It is important to make these distinctions clear because your understanding of the interview may change with time. Do not worry if your first, second, and third passes through your data agree with one another. Again, your perspective may change. It is important that you do not delete previous notes, but merely add to them each time through. Finally, in all three passes, be careful to distinguish between what was said and your interpretation of what was said. Actual descriptions should be recorded in regular text (in the appropriate color), but your interpretations, opinions, and inferences from the data should be italicized. Try to maintain this “fact-value” distinction as carefully as you can (although it is impossible to be perfect in this regard). You can use as many pages for your notes as you need. This document will expand to make room. But please be conscientious about recording everything, including your reactions as the interviewer! Good luck and have fun!

THE ASSIGNMENT TO BEGIN 1. Begin with the detailed interview guide sheet. This guide sheet will help you to understand the questions you will ask in your interview. You are advised to explore only one side of your family if this is possible: your sibling, father, and grandfather or your sibling, mother, and grandmother.

In filling out the interview guide sheet, write clearly and accurately and attach a sheet of paper if you need more room to describe a particular category. Be sure you have the permission of the person you are interviewing as whatever information you will use in your paper no longer is confidential. It is a good idea to record your interviews. If you find that certain kinds of information are more accessible or more interesting to you, keep this in mind so that you may explore the topic more completely. 2. Next, use the Interviewing Techniques as a guide to interviewing your parents and grandparents, etc. 3. After you interview your mother or father, grandmother or grandfather, children and/or grandchildren, jot down any notes or comparisons across the generations that interest you. Be sure to review your notes and your tape as soon after the interview as possible. 4.

(Information from the personal interviews must be included and also appropriately referenced). Secondary sources can be chosen from the following: • MAJOR books (no encyclopedias) • Legitimate accessible academic Web sites (NO MORE THAN THREE and NO Wikipedia) • MAJOR newspapers such as The New York Times • MAJOR periodicals (NOT Newsday or Times Magazine but scholarly and academic in nature) MAKE SURE TO CONSIDER a.

Topic: The Importance of Restaurant and Culture General Purpose: To Enlighten Specific Purpose: To enlighten my viewers on various ways on how to keep their bodies health by eating healthy and keeping with the cultural needs (Mack, 2005). Thesis: Culture and restaurant are some of the key issues in our day to day life that plays a vital part that keeps one healthy and informative. Rebecca L. Spang argues that, “Why are there restaurants? Why would anybody consider eating to be an enjoyable leisure activity or even a serious pastime?” To find the right insights fellow us we explore the reality behind it (Spang, 2001). A. Introduction a. Attention Getter: One of the key ways in which an organization can set and strengthens its brand is via culture. The mode upon which a company behaves and the values it portrays speaks volumes as to the kind of strategy and the operations that brings out the brand is a true promise of reality. How many are willing to enjoy a meal at any restaurant or those who are keen to look at the mode of operations and food served in a restaurant before eating? (Civitello, 2008). B. Reason to listen: Culture is an outstanding and key aspect in the restaurant industry, therefore it enables one to derive various ways to improve livelihood by eating quality food and brands that sustain long life (Fine, 2009). C. Credibility Declaration: a. We are so proud of discussing a topic on culture and restaurant, this is because I personally I have been so passionate about it since my early ages and we have proper understanding of its importance (Freedman, 2007). b. We have researched on the topic heavily on food that taste good, the best brands and the various modes on how to improve it. D. Preview of the Key points a. Keep watch on the body language as this initiates and sends signals whether you are listening or not. b. Tell a story that relaxes the minds of the people. c. Come up with question, ask and try to say the last individual’s in rejoinder. d. Do away with distractions. e. Be kindhearted in a manner that you go low as understanding those unspoken words. f. Be positive and attentive in listening. g. Do a perfect practice. h. Uphold an eye contact to proof your confidence concerning what you are discussing. i. Avoid talking of other people as this would mean been disrespectful. j. Be brief when talking but keep in mind the intended message is passed. E. Speech Presentation; how to present a. First, I will commence by describing the Importance of eating the ‘good food’ from the best restaurant and expound more on the thesis. b. Secondly, I will take time to discuss on the vital need of consuming healthy foods and the various ways in which you can improve your dietary needs (Cho, 2010). c. To sum them all, come up with an epic conclusion sidelining the main points. F. Conclusion a. I will enumerate all the key points that describe the need to have restaurants that observe high discipline in the preparation ...

II. Factors Bearing on the Problem This section includes facts or statements of truth which can be sub stantiated. For example, "The average education level of the police officer in this city is 14.5 years (or high school plus 2 1/2 years college)." Another example might be, "Last year the citizens of this county only reported 200 crimes in progress to the police" or "the jail population averaged 20% above maximum capacity in fiscal year 1983/84." List each fact separately. ( Use bullets to identify factors , however each factor MUST be a complete sentence ) . Each bullet item must ONLY be two sentences. You are to have 4 factors and if you require more, you must get permission from your instructor. Also at the end of the listed factors , the student must list any assumptions which lend weight to their final recommendation/solutions. Example: Assumption- It is assumed that if the victims of crimes are compensated for their time spent testi fying in court, more citizens will be willing to become involved in pro secutions; or, it is assumed that better trained officers will be able to more effectiv ely communicate with the public. The assumption goes after the last factor. You are to color each of the factors. Then when you are writing your information on a factor in the discussion section, you color the wording to match the factor. This way you have a clear visual on how much information you have written on the topic. You may keep the colors on the paper for each of the submissions, except the final submission. The Factors does not count in the total number of pages required. .

IFSM 461: Systems Analysis and Design Precision Electronic Parts, Inc. Case Study Introduction This case study will be used for a series of staged assignments. It should be thoroughly read and understood prior to working on any of the assignments. Setting Precision Electronic Parts (PEP), Inc., is a small private business that has retained you to assist in the development of a new billing and payment system and associated processes. Background PEP is a small, private specialized electronics company in Kansas. For the past 20 years, it has manufactured a wide range of precision electronic components and replacement parts for medical equipment used in hospitals, doctor’s offices, and pharmacies. Last year, the company began building and delivering custom low voltage motors that reduced electricity costs and made older medical equipment more environmentally friendly. More recently, PEP has added a new line of more efficient low voltage motors that can be used in precision equipment outside the healthcare industry. As a result, PEP is experiencing significant increases in orders for the motors. The manufacturing facility has been expanded, and the sales and marketing teams have been enlarged. All of this is straining the Ordering & Shipping Department and the Inventory Management Department, which have received no increase in personnel. They are meeting the challenge, but the Executive Leadership Team (the CEO, COO, CFO, and CIO) know that they are only treading water. The Finance Department, however, is getting further and further behind in their invoice, billing and payment processes. The Business Administration Department has stepped up to the task, but is at the breaking point. IT Steering Committee The IT Steering Committee (ITSC) at PEP is comprised of the Executive Leadership Team, the Senior Vice President and Vice President. • Carolyn West is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). She has been at the company for 11 years. Carolyn has a background working for and managing electronics companies. Like most CEOs, Carolyn is focused on the strategic and long-term business health of PEP. She chairs the IT Steering Committee. Carolyn and the committee members jointly make decisions about IT systems and major organizational business process changes. • Tim Uduak, Jr. is the Chief Operating Officer (COO) and the son of founding partner Tim Uduak, Sr. Tim has been around the company since its inception in one capacity or another, except for four years of college and a 3-year break to startup his own company. When his startup failed, Tim came back to PEP as the SVP, Engineering & Manufacturing Operations. Last year, he was promoted to COO. While Tim has a strategic focus and is not technology averse, he prefers to solve business challenges with processes rather than information technology. • Karl Manley is the Chief Financial Officer (CFO). He has been with the company for 9 years. Karl has a background .

Did one story seem more believable to you than the other? Explain. As outlined in your textbook, truthfulness, neutrality, and accuracy are three criteria for determining the quality of news. Did each story have all three? Did one story have more or less of one of the three qualities? What prompted you to determine this? Does either outlet present the story in a manner that is biased? If so, how did you recognize the bias? If not, how did the story appear to avoid bias? If one or both of the stories were biased in some way, what are your suggestions for making them more fair and balanced? Does either story include overtones or elements of racial or gender stereotypes? If so, describe. Do any of the stories appear to be incomplete or require additional context for viewers to fully understand the meaning? Could different audience types interpret the stories in different ways? If so, in what ways? Format your assignment according to appropriate course-level APA guidelines. Submit your assignment to the Assignment Files tab by copying the link into a Word doc. .

Identity and Representation Context and Description When we are asked about our identity, often we describe it in terms of the groups that we belong to, such as a sports team, club or other kinds of social groups. We may also mention our school, occupation or a specific workplace. We may think of our identity in terms of our gender, ethnicity or nationality. Where we live--the neighborhood or type of residence--may also influence our sense of who we are. The languages we speak in those groups also shapes our sense of who we are and how others see us. When we encounter a member of groups other than our own, sometimes it becomes necessary to reflect on and explain the values, assumptions and practices of the groups we belong to in order to resolve conflicts and to facilitate communication. Joining a new social group may also challenge those values, assumptions and practices that come from our pre-existing membership in other groups. The purpose of this project is to explore how identity is shaped, negotiated, and represented in relation to our membership in various groups. Write an analytical essay that explores your identity in terms of your own group memberships. For this project, you may focus on any of the following: the complex construction of identity through membership in various (and sometimes conflicting/competing) groups how you represent your identity in relation to the social expectations or stereotypes of being a member of a group (expectations vs. reality) the tension or struggle you encounter as a member of certain groups (e.g., how you represent yourself to others from different groups) how entering a new, possibly unfamiliar group (for example, moving away from home and/or starting college) affects the values and assumptions you brought with you As you explore your ideas, consider the following questions: What social groups do you belong to? How are these groups categorized (social groups, organizations, athletic teams, ethnic groups, or religious groups; by nationality, gender, neighborhoods, or communities)? What aspects of the group memberships are negotiable? Which ones are fixed or difficult to change? What aspects, characteristics, or expectations, if any, of these groups overlap with one another? Do they compete with one another? How are these groups perceived by people who are not members of those groups? Are there stereotypes associated with a certain group or groups you belong to? If so, what are they, and to what extent do you see those stereotypes occurring in others or yourself? How do those stereotypes affect you and people around you? How do your group memberships affect the ways in which you communicate with others? How do your memberships influence how you relate to others or how others relate to you? Explore all possible communities to which you belong and look for the one or ones that seem to have the richest potential for exploring your cultural identity.
