Session Activity- Ask for information on nets, and an old net maker in our family
Item Produced- List of net terms, net making knowledge, and a family tree
Summary- WOW. Learned a lot about the family. Nets began a family discussion (aided by the third person) that dove into some family history in a serious but honest way that had never been approached with before.
Linguistic Effective- Coming in with one topic and asking for words on that topic seems to always harvest a good collection
Linguistic Ineffective- The family discussion got so serious and complex it switched to English. Our comfort level as a speaking group is rising faster than my speaking ability
Linguistic Provisional Improvements- Warn people about the English creep
Cultural Effective- Showing interest and asking questions about the family tree when the speaker showed a willingness to talk about it was the ticket. Having the third party that also knew the history spurned the story forward in parts where it may have been dropped with only one knowledgeable party
Cultural Ineffective- I need to provide the user with a more serious family tree structure, If I would have had a more robust diagram, I could have legibly captured much more information.
Cultural Provisional Improvements- This third speaker is alright, I need to address this part of the third speaker issue. Up the game on genealogy diagrams!
Tomorrow-
