For Friday 2/20

1) You will have to each sign off on affidavits for each other which I am sending you saying what you did for the project and how much time you spent on it. 

2) Write up five do's and don'ts -amalgamated in one document. Phrase them accordingly-don't go shirtless in public, don't use your left hand to touch anything, etc. Don't make something that wasn't phrased prescriptively by the author, however, as if it were. Find the do's and don'ts that are presented that way. 

3) Go through each 'rule' and say what kind of information is missing about the system of figuring out what exactly to do and say in a very particular context-what is th List e grammar of greeting in your target culture? How do gender, age, race, religion, closeness, power, etc. figure into the system? Right now you're not giving answers, you're just asking good questions.  

4) Describe at least one significant framing difference about your target culture that you found in your literature. 

5) Provide your bibliography for all the sources consulted and indicate which quotes come from which sources and which group member (initial them or type in who the contributor was).  The bibliography should be alphabetised and amalgamated, obviously. 

6) Also send me an electronic copy so I can put comments for everyone on the blog. Minimally face threatening ones. (:
