Observe a person or people you know well

Last Friday, I went to my aunt’s house in Richmond. At about 4 pm, she started to cook dinner for the whole family. The dinner is typically Chinese food style, and she planed to prepare 3 dishes, including the pig elbow, eggplants and cucumbers. I observed the process of cooking eggplants. As first, she washed the ingredients and cut it into small pieces. Then she put them in a plate and added some salt on them in order to drain the water of the eggplants. Meanwhile, she got the mince form refrigerator and put it into a bowl while adding some pepper, salt, as well as soy sauce. After about 5 minutes, she started to heat the oil in the pot, and fried the eggplants. Then she put all the flavouring including garlic, ginger, and Chinese bean paste into the pot and fried them. Then she added the mince as well as the prepared eggplants in the pot and cooked all the ingredients together for about 4 minutes. After everything was ready, she switch the gas and put them on the plate.

The paper Using children’s drawing as data in child-centred research used the drawing as data when doing the child-centred research. The research emphasized on the merits of this method and how to analyze the data, and the researcher also used existing literatures to complete the study. The participants of the study were street children with no literacy. They were asked to draw their future careers in the study. What does the particular visual research method offers and what it doesn't offer? Firstly, they allow cross-cultural research, since the visual research does not need translation of different languages. Secondly, they are flexible enough to facilitate the broad variation that emerged in the example described. Thirdly, it could combine quantitative and qualitative methods together. Finally, both researchers and practitioners could know more about the participants. However, visual research could not solve that severe problems of reliability. Taking this drawing res...

class discussion

Jennette is interested about the background knowledge of the interview, and the curiosity about children. She was also impressed by the researcher’s passion about the subject.  I was surprised by Tathali, who does not have any teaching experience but she could complete the research.  We also talked about teaching about botany and farm in different areas in Vancouver (east and west) Since children in schools of East Vancouver are from poor family, their families could not afford the organic food and know little about the food and growing food. Another thing is that there are less earth left in the world to grow vegetables and food, because lots of high-rise buildings are built.  Crystal and Jennette
