Description and other notes

Use of autoethnography as method/ology was an unusual choice in Richard’s disciplinary context. Follows traditional simple (IMRD) macrostructure on purpose.

(Proposed) Degree of separation or connection between atypical or unconventional component(s) and conventional or written component(s)

Connected. Atypical or unconventional components are positioned as inextricable from the written or conventional components.

(Proposed) Type of relationship construed between atypical or unconventional component(s) and conventional or written component(s)

Incorporated. For the most part, the atypical components and conventional components are seen to influence each other, but also maintain a degree of separateness.

Notes/Reasoning

Unconventional and conventional elements are interdependent and influence each other. Follows IMRD macrostructure on purpose.
