In this episode it lighted the mood tremendously from last episode. I thought this episode was a good brightening moment for the designers to really focus more on their pieces of work. With the twins gone, both now, I think this also give the rest of designers a break from their chaos. Brandon is the designer I see myself most in. The reason why I chose Brandon because once he is given a piece to create, the focus and determination is so firm and stable where as nobody else can distract him. I find myself in this role when I am given hard challenges. When I am assigned a difficult task that will require more than attention, my determination factor sky rockets. I want the task to be accomplished in a timely manner and be the best I can make it. Brandon has that same mindset, but this episode the struggle for him were real. Brandon doesn’t typically deisgn bright clothes espeically for kids. Brandon’s struggle in this challenge really broguht the best of the best out in him and he created a beautiful creation. I think Brandon is an excllent designer.

Question: What are the different headaches people in my community suffer from when working out?

Field Research Plan: Sending out a questionnaire, asking people variety of questions about their workout, then going back the my previous links about the different headaches analyzing which ones they suffer from.

Raw Data: Just a few analysis

Initial Data Analysis: My goal is to receive 20 responses. Out of the 20 responses, I will have to go back through each response and record what each question matches up with then go back to the headache chart to see which questions match up with each answer.

In the article Hyland wrote about different experiences in reading and writing. Hyland uses a different analysis to corporate the analysis called “Corpus Analysis”. This term refers to a computer program that helps analyze thousands of texts and make conclusions about various groups of people. My own experience that I’ve encountered would be making suitable levels of claim in my writing. I try to explain myself more in depth where it can be confusing. I want my audience to get my point of view and where I’m coming from. I negotiate sometimes on levels where as if I feel like my audience may be confused with my writing. Negotiating with them helps me and them get the solid viewpoint. I believe that you learn from these simialirites and differences in certain ways. You’re learning from your mistakes, growing as a reader/ writer, and having accpetable background knowledge.

Question: My question for this research assignment is What are the different headaches people in my community suffer from when working out?

Interview: I plan to interview some friends of mine that go the gym on they own time and have different workout routines.

Questions:

1. How long do you typically spend at the gym?
2. How much time is that working out?
3. Do you drink water before, between workouts, or after?
4. Do you take any pre-workout supplements?
5. What strength would you say you are?
6. Do you heavy-weight?
7. Do you end the workout with cardio?
8. What do you after working out?
9. Does your head hurt after working out throughout the day?
10. What is your average heart- rate?

Observations:

I will be observing the different answers to these questions looking back at research to see if any of their symptoms of suffering from headaches are the common headaches after working out.

In the video Where Good Ideas Come From, Steven talks about where the ideas come from. All of the different concepts that talk about ideas become florid into one. The concept and different ideas steer us into a direction of idea- creation. A new network of ideas are the neurons firing up inside creating more and more ideas. I personally think that the twins do not have these concepts where as the other designers are creating this beautiful work in their fashion but come up with themselves. The twins help each other out with their designs and honestly, it;’s not fair to the others. There’s two brains working on each project rather than one. I think that their concept isn’t very competitive as what this show is all about. Competitiveness.

In the article Rhetorical Situations and Their Constituents, exigence is pinpointed throughout the entire article. Exigence is described as “an imperfection marked by urgency; it is a defect, an obstacle, something waiting to be done, a thing which is other than it should be”(Bitzer). Basically, something that needs to be addressed that can be tackled down in smoother terms. Bitzer compares the two Rhetorical Situation and Exigence similar in a way. The Rhetors are the constituents of their own situation. Meaning, they need to reconsider who they technically are.
