2. Written assignment
(a) Identify at least one important point from each chapter of Ely (1991) and Creswell (1998) that you would not want your classmates to miss. You may either quote or do a summary of the points and should identify the pages where the material is found. Identify differences between Ely and Creawell.  Follow this with one to three sentences of a subjective response (do you like these readings, do they seem relevant, are they a waste of your time, etc.).
(b) For the interview materials (readings (c) and (d) above) write one paragraph covering the central message (or messages) and one or two sentences of your subjective response  to the materials. Post on the Discussion Board by 5:00pm June 25 (but by 9:00pm June 24 would be better).
(If you are not able to post to the Discussion Board, bring a hard copy to class and a computer disk with your assignment saved as a .rtf file and we will help you post your assignment)
