Project 3 proposal
For this project I will look into the discourse of my place of employment, which is Jefferson Dining Hall. I plan to interview the staff and some of the customers. I plan to look at how authority is involved in the community. I want to look into how the higher the position of the worker the more effort is put into the job. I want to do a survey, but also some unobtusive studying as well. I plan to not let them know I am observing. I really am excited to do this project and find out more about the people in my community both because they tell me and also what I find out.

Your topic looks good. Remember that for Friday, you need to look at the existing literature about workplace discourse communities, specifically in food service. You might find something in the library databases in journals focused on employment. You might also have to use Google. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteI like your enthusiasm.
