To gather participants, take them to a playground/recreation ground or a space suited to activity and large groups. Placing a rugby ball, and a basketball on the ground, I will ask the participants to split into groups, self deciding whether to stand by the basketball or rugby ball, or to create a third neutral group. I will then teach the groups to use the balls and teach them skills, such as passing and tricks (there may well be another neutral group which doesn’t want to interact with the activities). When the groups have enough independence based around the skills learnt, I will ask individuals to document their activities using smartphones and cameras, which then will be uploaded onto a social media group page, e.g. Facebook. Through recollection and asking for personal feedback, I can then collate the information to move onto developing the project further. I wish to have as little influence or direct input as possible, in order to study the outcomes of the session. The following statements are my imagings on what may occur, I imagine I am stunted on my imagings.
Positive/negative…Competition…Friendship…Rivalry…Group/individual…
Knowledge/belief…Despondency…Emotions…Dynamics....
