  • Ethnography is an inquiry process carried out by a person from a point of view based on experience and knowledge of prior research. Anthropologists try to understand the significance or meaning of an experience from the participants' views. Some researchers also use the term ethnography to refer to all techniques used in fieldwork, not a single method; for example Stuhr (1986).

    "The purpose of this chapter is to 1) discuss the nature of qualitative inquiry, 2) explore different kinds of qualitative inquiry, 3) explain the role of interpretation, 4) present various participant observation stances, 5) offer ways of gaining access and achieving reciprocity, 6) review stages of qualitative research, 7) suggest practical procedures related to research methods as well as research writing, 8) present sociocultural problems, and 9) give future alternatives for qualitative research. Specifically, stages of qualitative research to be described are data collection, content analysis, and comparative analysis. Practical suggestions for analysis will include such examples as computer programming, icon and color coding of concepts, focus groups and key informants, and spread sheets for comparative and cross-site analysis"

    "This article reports on the development of a short questionnaire to measure work engagement-a positive work-related state of fulfillment that is characterized by vigor, dedication, and absorption. Data were collected in 10 different countries (N = 14,521), and results indicated that the original 17-item Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) can be shortened to 9 items (UWES-9). The factorial validity of the UWES-9 was demonstrated using confirmatory factor analyses, and the three scale scores have good internal consistency and test-retest reliability"

  • After the initial conversation on values and context in relation to your desire to improve practices that relate to helping students, yourself and/or colleagues to improve their learning, I believe that you may find the following action planning process most useful.
  • 'How do I improve what I am doing?'
  • tions, ideas and actions that can distinguish an action reflection cycle: 1) What do I want to improve? What is my concern? Why am I concerned? 2) Imagining possibilities and choosing one of them to act on in an action plan 3) As I am acting what data will I collect to enable me to judge my educational influence in my professional context as I answer my question?  4) Evaluating the influence of the actions in terms of values and understandings. 5) Modifying concerns, ideas and actions in the light of evaluations.
  • Making public a validated explanation of educational influences
  • 7) As I evaluate the educational influences of my actions in my own learning and the learning of other, who might be willing to help me to strengthen the validity of my explanation of my learning about my influence with responses to questions such as: i)               Is my explanation as comprehensible as it could be? ii)             Could I improve the evidential basis of my claims to know what I am doing? iii)            Does my explanation include an awareness of historical and cultural influences in what I am doing and draw on the most advanced social theories of the day? iv)            Am I showing that I am committed to the values that I claim to be living by?

  • In an inclusional way of being and knowing an individual recognises that they exist in a relational dynamic of space and boundaries. Hence one of the tasks of the practitioner-researcher is to express and communicate this relational dynamic in explanations of educational influence.
  • An example here would be the use of Foucault's (1977) ideas on Power/Knowledge to understand the relationships between the Truth of Power and the Power of Truth in the workplace when seeking academic legitimation for new living standards of judgment.
