Fishbowl: 10 + 1 Steps
Structure
Opening Structure (sentence)
Entering the unknown - always enter on a structure
Gathering words and creating a word pool
Drawing the boundary of your context from collecting these words from a dictionary
Going into dictionary and writing out more substitual words
Trying to understand “what does this mean” and experience it at the same time
Experiential learning
Can extend boundary and take words further
Re-structure
Creating a new sentence from the word pool
Can move on from the original sentence, should always be simple
Captures somewhat the meaning of the first structure
Entering the unknown
Writing out 3-4 sentences and then weeding it out
Abstract sentence - no first person, talking only about words and how they relate to each other
Felt Experience
Bringing the “I” into the picture
Personal experience, a description, describing an event or an incident
Explaining something, talking about yourself and keeping it really short
Has to fit abstraction - creating knowledge
Working together
On your own in steps 1-4
If you can’t find group members at this step then you can’t do anything
Giving each other perceptual categories
Looking at the whole thing and reduce it to one word - not sharing word until every group member has one
Becomes the reference point you lead off with - answers how does your text make you feel?
Word is arbitrary and adds to their value
You choose a word and each group member gives a word back on how they think the sentence made you sound/feel
Do the same to other group members to form 9 words total
Perceptual Categories
Creating knowledge is tentative
From 9 words - Create a dichotomy
With group members - post and wait, other two have to agree on it
Two words aren’t linked to each other
Show suggested dichotomies as well
Create a word pool from dichotomy
Push boundaries of mind - widen the context by taking words further and then create a structure
Structure
Has nothing to do with opening structure
Done jointly - with group members
Come up with own sentence, show others, then negotiate (pick/choose) and create a final sentence
Sentence must be simple, not complex that has to do with felt experience
Felt Experience again
Individual
Perceptual Categories one more time
Create 9 words again
Final Paragraph
Provides insight and realization
Look up those words
Circle three words from Perceptual Categories and create paragraph on to show connection from difference on the 3 words

Participant observation
Symbolic interactionism
Interacting symbolically

Is a bridge between the concrete world and the abstract linking something known to the senses with an abstraction of the Mind. Always working to describe the abstract with the concrete
Search between concrete abstract mind linking known senses working describe.
