Data recording experience
  • Find a place you can observe another Human
  • Watch them and write down each behavior they emit
    • The time
    • The behavior
  • NOTE: Only write down what you can SEE 
    not what you think they are thinking or what 
    you think they are doing just what you can see them do.
  • Watch and record for 30 minutes
  • Do not "get caught." If you you do it will change their behavior.
    • Don't watch a child - you'll get caught
    • Don't watch your SigO - negative consequences

      find another person. If you get caught after 20 minutes
      I'll take that.
