Reflection
This final project was centered around an ethnography we personally chose from the UHMC library. Using our chosen ethnographies, we were tasked with finding and writing an essay about 3 aspects of the specific people's culture that were affected by their subsistence mode(s). For this project, I chose the book, "The Sea People of Sulu," by H. Arlo Nimmo. I chose this project as a work sample because my research essay basically typed itself. I found the book very interesting, with a lot of information to work with in my essay. This essay was the first physical-book research essay that I had done. I had to read through the ethnography while hand-picking information that applied to my stated thesis. While it was a lot of work keeping track of information, it was ultimately a fun project. In the future, I could submit the assignment on time. I misread the due date of the assignment as 10:00 p.m. instead of 10:00 a.m. I was able to submit the assignment on the same day, though.
