\nInstructions
\nThe five concepts listed below will provide insight into the ethnographic interview process. Use the Howell and Paris textbook and Dr. Harper\u2019s Worldview presentation to respond to the questions provided for the five concepts. Use complete sentences and do not copy the questions in the assignment submission.
\nUse the Howell and Paris textbook in the discussion of concepts 1-4, however, do not simply submit a list of quotes from the textbook. Be sure to include your own analysis of the textbook content and cite the borrowed textbook material using Turabian formatted footnotes.<\/p>\n
1. Anthropological Perspective \u2013 What is the anthropological perspective and how does it help the researcher better understand the research participant and even their own culture? What role does the \u201cinsider\u201d perspective play and why is this concept significant to the ethnographic interview process?<\/p>\n
2. Participant Observation \u2013 How does the researcher typically move from observer to participant? Why is this transition essential for ethnographic research? How does the researcher\u2019s openness about their research intentions impact participants and research findings? What is rapport in the research context and how might it impact the researcher\/research participant relationship and the research findings?<\/p>\n
3. Ethnographic Interviews \u2013 Describe ethnographic interviews and other methods that could be used in ethnography. Discuss how one interview method could be used and the benefits of using this method.<\/p>\n
4. Rapid Ethnographic Assessment Procedures (REAP) \u2013 What is REAP? Discuss one benefit and one challenge of using REAP.
\nUse the Worldview presentation for concept 5. Be sure to cite content from the Worldview presentation using Turabian formatted footnotes.<\/p>\n
5. Worldview \u2013 What is a worldview and how does it impact the beliefs and practices of an individual and their community? How does worldview impact the researcher\u2019s approach to their research and the interactions between the researcher and research participant?<\/p>\n
