Verbal Observation
I think this photo shows a group of friends, spending one day on the beach. None of them looking at the camera. In the foreground, to our left, we see a characteristic object: the beach ball. It is on the sand. That means someone has been played volleyball In the centre of the photo there is a young man doing exercise. He is reclined with his arms on the sand. Behind, there is a blond woman that looks him. She wears a black bikini and blue shorts. To her right there is a man that looks him too. He is wearing a cap. In front of the blond woman, there are three people. I think they just bathed in the sea because It looks as though they are looking the sun to dry. There are four people near to the water. On the one hand, there are two

    The poem Woman on a Beach written by Anne Michaels does an exquisite job at making an everyday event, seem so unique and unordinary. The author is really able to capture the reader’s attention by using exceptional adjectives to describe the setting and environment of the beach. This author is able to make the reader feel like they are actually there, through the use of their imagery. She is really able to describe the setting, so that the reader can almost feel the relaxation the women are feeling and have somewhat of the same experience. The symbolism however, is not as noticeable as the imagery but is still present. The main piece of symbolism is the use of the “red shirt”. Anne makes it notable that the red shirt stands out from the pale sky. The red shirt could symbolize the women in general, and how together they are strong and support one another so much that it would stand out to the rest of the people on the beach, or in this case stands out from the sky. She composes the thought of the beach being peaceful enough to allow someone to fall asleep on it, and able to spend the whole day on the beach, it seems very relaxing. By the end of this poem I got the feeling that being on a beach is an exquisite way to relax, and calm yourself down, and just be alone with your thoughts even if you’re with a group of…

    In the beginning of the novel, water is a symbol of Edna’s troubled relationship status. As Edna stands on the beach, she concludes that “the voice of the sea is seductive [and] speaks to the soul.” The sea resembles Robert, enlightening Edna of her true feelings for him. Whereas Edna’s relationship with Robert is lacking passion, hers with Robert evokes her innermost being, which is hidden from the standards of the Victorian age. Alternatively, water conjures lesser visions when associated with Mr. Pontellier. Leonce persistently nagged…

    Observing can be obtrusive and subjects may alter their behaviour due to the presence of an observer. Co operation of users is vital and so the interpersonal skills of the observer are important. Notes and video tape need to be analyzed by the note-taker which can be time consuming and prevents the task being split up for analysis by a number of people. If events or behaviours which occur at unpredictable intervals are of interest, this kind of observation can become extremely time-consuming.…

    The second example I would like to present is the nonverbal and verbal cues: non-verbal cue includes all the communication between people that do not have a verbal translation, like facial expression, gesture, body language. Time and space can also be perceived as having nonverbal cues. The verbal cue is a prompt conveyed in spoken language from one person to another or to a group of people. In face-to-face interaction, the nonverbal and verbal cues play a very important role, because the message can be perceived in different ways, depending on our behavior and language. If a coworker comes into your office after having lunch, throwing her bag on the ground, sitting in her chair and glaring out the window while speaking to no one, would indicate…
