Task 1: Proposal

INSTRUCTIONS

 For this project, we are to create groups and work to explore the theme of a certain culture. Before deciding on a theme for our project, we as a group did our own research on what kind of culture we found interesting. Then all of us put our research article into padlet for further discussion.

For me, I suggested the culture of Maori Tattoos. However, after further discussion, we had decided to go with the culture of hip-hop. Then we are given feedback to narrow down our hip-hop culture. So as a group we did research on things that goes under 'hip-hop'.

After narrowing it down, we decided to go with the rap culture and started to make our proposal.


Task 1: Proposal


The proposal consists of the problem statement, research questions, research objectives, rationale, and our final design ideas. Due to the theme being purpose and the chosen topic being rap culture, we create our objectives of this project to explore more into rap and understand its origin and purpose.

After getting the approval of the proposal we moved it into a presentation to be presented.



FEEDBACK

WEEK 1 :

Group Feedback

  • Need to find the purpose of the project and the message that we want to convey
  • Not just think of the output, because pre-determining the output can make the whole research point to that output only and not the culture itself.
  • Can look into the 16 lines used in rapping
  • The album cover can be used as one of the 5 sketches
  • Can look into the other elements of hip hop/ Indonesian hip hop/ hong kong hip hop
  • Can maybe brainstorm on why we choose hip-hop and BLM 
  • Narrow down hip hop

General Feedback

  • For the proposal, find the objectives of the research. What kind of questions do you want to be answered before starting the research
  • Can do more than 1 proposal (must be 200 words each)
  • The proposal must include: Research question, objectives, rationale, sketches
WEEK 2 :

Group Feedback

  • No issue with the RQ and RO
  • Find someone from other countries as well to have a comparison. Find out where they get the influence.
  • Contact Mr. Asrizal’s friend Micwrecka, Part of ==> Rogue Squadron
  • Find the references for the ideas. Include some visuals

General Feedback

  • Need to get terms right
  • Purpose: Why is it important to understand this culture? Why are you researching this?
  • Have an assumption of what kind of answers you can get from your research questions (inductive reasoning?)
  • How do the answers help with answering your problem statement?
