Overview
Teaching: min
Exercises: 10 minQuestions
How do I transcribe this?
How do I intrepret the verbatim data?
Objectives
Transcribe the label data
Think about what common association term you would use
Think about how the interaction could be interpreted differently and if there may be a better term
Objectives
The goal of this exersise is to transcribe the association data from the label images provided and consider not just how you would interpret and classify an interaction, but how someone else may interpret the interaction.
Getting started
Download a copy of the activity spreadsheet to fill in, or open and make a copy you can edit in Google Drive or Google Sheets.
Transcribe the association data from each of the 7 specimen labels provided below into your spreadsheet. You can also open the images up in separate windows or tabs if you prefer with these links:
