Research Methods: Ethnography Continuum

Reflection

Looking at some of the topics that will be discussed in this course, I am finding it difficult to see where some of these areas will apply to my research. I am trying to keep an open mind, however it seems that a lot of these approaches are far more geared toward theoretical concepts rather than the more practical and applied areas that I am pursuing.

I loved Shari’s openness about her process working on her dissertation. I felt like I was actually a part of the project rather than just being filled in on the process after the fact. I had the advantage of being a bit familiar with Shari’s research work prior to this lecture, however I still learned a great deal more about her actual process and approach. This was tremendously helpful and insightful and has helped calm some of my concerns about my own research process.
