For this blog I wanted to discuss the questions and concerns that I have been having toward Project Two. I understand that we are supposed to write about a particular community that we may want to join or be joining in the future and write about texts in the community. I also understand that we are supposed to focus more on our “on the ground” research rather than our academic sources (some topics require more academic sources than others). My research paper is going to be on the gym, weightlifting community and how supplement use is viewed within this community. I guess I am a little confused on the use of “a text” within the community we are writing about.” Am I supposed to narrow it down to a specific text that explains my community appropriately, or use a collection of texts I was given throughout my research? I have a good idea of what I want to write about and sources that I could potentially use but I do not quite understand the structure of the article and the expectations for the final draft. Maybe I could be somewhat productive and express my concerns with project 2 to Matt (might help).
