Assignment 1: Field Observation Assignment part 1Purpose: The purpose of this two-step exercise is for you to conduct inductive and deductive research using quality methods.General Instructions: The purpose of this exercise if for you observe ONE social setting to begin to detect patterns in human behavior – observance of norms and potentially behaviors that deviate from the norm.For Assignment 1: without any prep work, you will need to go to ONE public place and observe the people for 1 hour. Note people’s behavior, their demeanor, their reactions/interactions to/with each other.Here are the step:1) Choose the social setting in which will be conducting non-participant observation. This should be a public place such as a park, mall, restaurant, church, coffee shop, etc.2) For you inductive approach, you will simply choose a time and location where you are going to conduct you observations.3) Go to the specific location and proceed with your observations. You must be a keen social observer; a “peeping tom” in the sociological sense. Take handwritten and/or mental notes:-details about your chose location (time of day, lighting, furniture, plants, sounds, temperature, smell, vibe/energy, etc.)- the people around you, not only their behavior but general information about their socio-demographic characteristics (age, race/ethnicity, gender, SES, etc.)- Your thoughts and feelings while making observations.4) When you have returned from your observation, type up your notes. Review your notes for patterns in behavior, socio-demographic characteristics, etc.5) Write- up your observations using “thick description” of the location (i.e. building you were in (what is the architecture like), descriptions of people there (in terms of socio-demographics: age, race/ethnicity, gender, socio-economic status), sounds, smells, temperature, time of day and week, etc.)6) Discuss trends and patterns of behavior that you noticed in your observation. What is a possible sociological/theoretical explanation for the trends you observed? Analyze you observations using a minimum of 4 sociological concepts and one theory from the textbook.The paper should be typed, double spaced, 1″ margins, Arial or times new roman 11 point font.
