I\nhave two remaining projects to complete for my LBST degree here at cap. I have\nbeen thinking about them for almost a year now and I believe that I have a\npretty concrete path I want to take. Considering Ways of Seeing <\/em>by John\nBerger I have applied how sampled information and how different ways of seeing\nwill contribute to my remaining projects. Further insights from Vilhauer\u2019s Gadamer\nand the Game of Understanding<\/em>, and the film Being in the World<\/em> by\nRuspoli have constructed the framework for the development of my research. I\nhave begun to know that the thought behind how research is created is essential\nto the Truth behind research. This provokes thoughts like why is my research\nimportant? Is my presentation form the best way to present it? What are my\nintentions with my research?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflecting\non the how to adjust ways of thinking, seeing, and being I am facing with the confrontation\nof my personal worldviews and the want to align these views with a social norm\nof acceptance.  Will people like my\nresearch? Will I get a good mark? <\/em>These irrelevant questions are hindering\nthe potential of my research. Thinking deeper on this, I find that my obedience\nto these norms is counterintuitive to my goals of adding, altering, and\ncontributing to my field. At this point in my higher learning I have an in\ndepth understanding of the processes of the scientific method, and expression\nof thought through writing and mathematics. The next step is the formation of new\npersonal material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tutorial III<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My next and final tutorial is going\nto be a creative writing project next semester. Expanding on my current writing\nportfolio I am going to write another short story. I am going to explore the Genre\nof Noir and combine environmental issues like climate change, projecting them\ninto a fictional world. I want to experiment in how to deliver messages within\nliterature without being preachy. This will be a combination of my personal\ninterests in psychology, earth sciences and writing. I want this tutorial to be\nreminiscent of something that I would want to do after my degree is complete. Something\nthat would progress my career in the outside world. This project is one that I\nhave been thinking of pursuing for a while and have been giving thought to. As\nwith my previous tutorials I am using these tutorials with as much personal\ngain as possible so that I can really jump start the career I want to have by\ngraduating with a concrete presence.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grad Project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My grad project I have already\ndecided is going to be a 6-credit course where I develop my own podcast and I\nwill have episodes that represent different solutions responding to the climate\nchange crisis and an exploration of those topics. As it stands, I want to have\naround 5 episodes at around 20-30 mins each. I already have a couple scientists\nin the field that have agreed to be interviewed. One example episode would be:\na study of Big Agriculture and what sustainable solutions might look like. A\ncontact of mine is currently working to provide these solutions and on this\nepisode, we will chat about it. This will be the perfect combination of\nresearch, writing, and environment. Inspiration for this project came from my\nown love of the podcast for of information sharing especially shows like Science\nvs. and RadioLab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would be putting a personal spin\non this project allowing my own humor, personality, and admittedly my own bias\nto give color to its creation. As a science writer I want to present real\ninformation via the scientific method but in an interesting and fun way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sampled information in this\ntutorial would take the form of observations. My aim is to showcase my ability\nto describe my research. That is where the blending of writer and scientist occurs:\nin my narrative.  I will have a wide\nvariety of resources that include quantitative data and qualitative data. My\nhopes for my grad project is to essentially create a series of lit reviews, one\nper episode, speaking to some experts in the subjects, and the propose solutions\nthat leave the listener to make their own decisions. My choosing to do a\npodcast and not a video I will be leaving out the visual aspect and allow my\nlisteners to use their own imagination and critical thinking to create their\nown way of seeing. It is my preferred way of presenting research and in that\naspect will provide a genuine comfortability that is being true to myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thinking further on our perceptions\nas are our guides while we \u2018wander\u2019 around whereas a visual description of\nsomething is someone else\u2019s insight. Photography is someone else\u2019s vision and\n\u2018seeking\u2019 captured in real life. A representative of a vision that someone else\nsaw. But so is description accompanied by (an exploration into) sound. In Podcast\nform you get an intimate feeling peek into someone\u2019s world. A world and a way\nof seeing things that is perhaps very unlike your own. Considering differing\nworld views and critically trying to understand and perhaps in so change you\nown world views, is something that will be a backbone to my project. Our world\nviews and our perceptions guide our decisions so context in relation to seeing\nis everything. Therefore, I want to try and explore different ways of seeing\nand different ways of expressing my sight. I believe that I will be able to\naccomplish this, at least a little bit, in these two projects. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
