WEEK 2. What symbols do we see, and how do they influence our behavior?

 Symbols shorten the time people spend on communication. If you shake your head horizontally or make an "X" with your hands, it means denial. And if you shake your head vertically or make an 'o' with your hands, it means positive. In such a busy or difficult situation, 'symbol' becomes a convenient means of communication.

Week4 extra) About interaction assignment

The Interaction Assignment. What did you do? What did you learn? Was it fun?  I conducted a Breaching experiment for project 1. I was in a situation where I couldn't carry out my observations face-to-face. So I did an experiment using Kakao Talk, and this was the difference from Goffman. I broke the promise of my relationship with my friend through Kakao Talk. I replied coldly and badly to my friend(participant), who always exchanged friendly words. And my friend thought I had a complaint or something was wrong. It was the same view that Goffman looked at individuals who broke the rules in society. It was the first observation experiment, and the process of organizing the experiment was not easy. Also, it was hard to read English books, understand the contents, and do an experiment.
