Abstract | Ethnographic research is an emerging research technique in the field of education. Ethnographic research was a procedure usually used in anthropology but now it is getting popular in educational field. This kind of research relies on qualitative data, its perspective is holistic and its procedures of data analysis involve contextualization. Data is collected using observations, interviews, audio- recorders, video cameras, etc. Observations can be participant or non-participant and overt or covert. Most of the ethnographic programmes in education are conducted abroad but for the past few year, such researches are becoming popular in India. Ethnography presents educators with realistic pictures of group behaviour. So they consider this research better than traditional research. A problem with ethnographic studies is that it is only concerned with the group being studied and is not applicable to other groups and settings. Yet this different kind of research is getting popular and is applied in those areas of education where other traditional research programmes are ineffective. (As Provided). |
