Hello World!
Project Proposal
1. Objective I propose to create a Flikr project that documents the history of my primary group. 2. Interest This is interesting because I believe the views of Americans are greatly influenced by their primary group. Primary groups change through time and it’s interesting to watch them as they mature. My parents have always been good about taking pictures so I have a lot of them to work with. It also helps that they are a big part of my primary group. Since I left for years and am now back I’m excited to see how this project comes out. 3. Background reading I will read wikipedia, text book and other basic sociology texts on the following topics: 1. Why humans have and maintain primary groups and the purpose of those groups. 2. I will try find articles and press related items on my subject. I doubt there will be much information in the media about primary groups so I will be relying mostly on my own primary group history. 4. General Plan I plan to go through the family album and try to show how my primary group has changed from a young age until now. I think it will be interesting to track this through time. 5. Collaborators I will be working alone.
