6th field study
Location: Nathan Road/ Boundary Street Sitting-out area
Date: 31 January, 2008 ( Thursday)
Time: 1420-1500
Observation:
Grandmother and a little child, they did their own things. Grandmother was talking on phone while the little child was playing in the park. The little children was playing with her own, she was throwing something such as rubbish she found on the park. She talked to herself. Before Children’s mother arrived, her grandmother was keep talking on phone and ignored the little children. On the other hand, some elder entered the park and sat in the park, watching the little children.
Comment:
During this field study, I can only found one children played in the park. In fact, she was playing with her own game with her own rule. So, is she really using the facilities to play in the park? Beside, why there is only one children played in the park? Where do the children go? Park seems became a area which only suitable for the elder.
