Etnography and Historical research(RM EDU702)
ETHNOGRAPHY
• The most complex of all research
• To obtain as holistic a picture as possible
• A holistic perspective of:
 A particular group of society
 Institution
 Setting
 Situation
 Sort of description that can only emerge from
spending a lengthy amount of time intimately
studying and living in a particular social setting
(Van Maanen, 1982, p. 103-104)
• Conducted in a natural context.
• Emphasis on documenting everyday experiences
of individuals by observing and interviewing
• Involves intimate face-to-face interactions with
participants.
• Reflects participants’ perspectives and behaviour.
• Data is collected primarily through fieldwork
experiences.
• Uses multiple data sourced including both
quantitative and qualitative.
• Key tools : in depth interviewing & continual
observation
• Investigates a small number of cases in detail.
• Uses data analysis that involve the explicit
interpretation of the meanings and functions of human
actions
• Interpretations of people’s actions and behaviour that
are uncovered through the investigation of what they
actually do and the reason for doing it.
• Offers a representation or interpretation of people’s
lives and behaviour.
• Built on the points of understanding that occur
between the researcher and participants.
• Thick description
• Non-judgmental orientation (researcher refrain from
making value judgement)
REQUIREMENT
• the language of that culture
• first-hand participation & interpretation
• intensive work with a few informants from
that setting
CULTURE
• the beliefs, values, and attitudes that structure the
behavior patterns of a specific group of people
• at a minimum, similarity must be shared by a
significant number of members of a social group;
shared in the sense of being behaviorally
enacted, physically possessed, or internally thought
• Subculture: group having social, economic, ethnic, or
other traits distinctive enough to distinguish it from
others within the same culture or society
ETHNOGRAPHY
- Tribes
- Subcultures
- Public realm
- Organizations
Kinds of data:
- Interviews
- Field notes
- Texts
- Visual data
- Transcripts
What can be studied:
AIMS
1. Seeing: through the eyes of the people being observed
2. Description: paying attention to the mundane details
3. Contextualism : conveying messages in a complete manner so that
understand the wider social and historical context
4. Process: viewing social life as involving interlocking series of events
5. Flexible research design: adapting research methods to various
situations as they unfold
6. Avoiding early use of theories and concepts
SAMPLING
• Typically small (often only a few individuals ,or
a single class)
DOING ETHNOGRAPHY
4 Separate Sets of Notes Needed:
1. Short notes made at the time
2.Expanded notes made as soon as possible
after the field session
3. A fieldwork journal to record problems
and ideas that arise during each stage of
field work
4.A provisional running record of analysis
and interpretation
(Spradley, 1979)
In order to increase reliability creating contact
summary sheets is suggested.
Why Important:
1. Guide planning
2. Suggests new or revised codes/themes
3. Coordinates several fieldworkers work
4. Serves as a reminder of the contact at a later
date
5. Serves as the basis for data analysis
Questions for Contact Summary Sheets:
1. What people, events, or situations were involved?
2. What were the main themes or issues in the contact?
3. Which research questions did the contact bear most centrally
on?
4. What new hypotheses, speculations, or guesses about the
field situations were suggested by the contact?
5. Where should the fieldworker place most energy during the
next contact, and what sorts of information should be
sought?
DATA ANALYSIS
• Triangulation
• Key events
• Visual representation
• Statistics
• Crystallization
TRIANGULATION
CRITIQUE OF ETHNOGRAPHIC
RESEARCH
ADVANTAGES
One of the most
valuable aspects is
the depth of
understanding
Can challenge ‘taken
for granted’
assumptions
DISADVANTAGES
Takes a long time
Does not have much
breadth
It can be difficult for
some to write up the
findings for a journal
article
METHODOLOGICAL ISSUES
Social researchers assumes a “learning role,” so
many scientific type questions will not work
when conducting social science research.
There are several methodological issues to
consider.
ISSUES
1. Defining a research problem
a) avoid early specification of definitions hypothesis
- puts too many constraints on what you’re
observing
b) develop animating questions to consider
- narrow and focus
- limit your research topic
2. Choosing a research site
a) “case the joint”
3. Gaining access:
- closed or private
- open or public
4. Finding an identity
a. Observers may change the situation just by their
presence
5. Looking as well as listening
a. explain the situation as you would to a sighted
person who is blindfolded
6. Recording observations
a. must decide what is the best format to record note
in
b. must decide what to “weed out”
c. analyze as you go/catagorize
THE TITLES OF STUDIES:
• Gang-Related Gun Violence.”
• “The Dignity of Job-Seeking Men.”
• “Telling the Code of the Street.”
• Streets, Sidewalks, Stores, and Stories.
• “The Power of Names.” 7
• “On Thick Description and Narrative Inquiry in Music
Education.” 8
• “Inside High School: The Student’s Perspective.”
For example Franz Boas studied the indigenous
people of the north west Pacific coast, Alaska and
Siberia.
Photographs of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition
which Boas was involved in can be found by following

to_jesup.htm
EXAMPLES OF ETHNOGRAPHY
• “Ethnographic research is, in many
respects, the most complex of all research
methods…”
(Helen et al. ,2012)
HISTORICAL
RESEARCH
WHAT IS
HISTORICAL
RESEARCH?
Focuses on the
past.
Is the systematic
collection and
evaluation of data to
describe, explain, and
thereby understand
action or events that
occurred sometime in
the past
There’s no
manipulation or
control of
variables
THE
PURPOSE
OF
HISTORICAL
RESEARCH
To make people aware
of what has happened
in the past so they may
learn from past failures
and successes
To learn how things were
done in the past to see if
they might be applicable to
present-day problems and
concerns.
To assist in prediction. If
a particular idea or
approach has been
tried before, even
under somewhat
different
circumstances, past
results may offer policy
makers some ideas
about how present
plans may turn out.
To test hypotheses
concerning relationships
or trends.
To understand
present
educational
practices and
policies more fully.
STEPS IN HR?
Defining the
problem
Locating
relevant
sources
Summarizing
information
obtained from
historical
sources
Evaluating
historical
sources
DEFINING THE PROBLEM
• Purpose of a historical study in education is to
describe clearly and accurately some aspect of
the past as it related to education or schooling
• Researchers aim to do more than just
describe, they want to go beyond description to
clarify and explain and sometimes to correct
• In HR problem maybe selected for study for
which insufficient data are available.
• Data of interest, such as diaries or maps from a
particular period cannot be located in historical
research.
LOCATING RELEVANT SOURCES
CATEGORIES OF SOURCES
After researchers has decided on the problem or question to be investigate, the search of sources begins.
DOCUMENTS
- Written or printed
documents which
have been produced
in some form or
another (annual
reports, artwork, bills,
books, legal
records, newspapers,
magazines, diaries, co
urt records and etc.)
- Published or
unpublished.
NUMERICAL
RECORDS
- Any type of
numerical data in
printed records
include any type of
numerical data in
printed form: test
scores, attendance
figures, census
report, school
budgets.
ORAL STATEMENTS
- Another valuable
source of
information for the
historical
researcher are the
statements people
make orally.
-
interviews, stories,
myths, tales, legen
ds, chants, songs, a
nd other form of
oral expression.
RELICS
- Any object whose
physical or visual
characteristics can
provide some
information about
the past. Examples
furniture, artwork,
clothing, buildings,
monuments, equip
ment.
Examples of Historical Studies
I. “Shakespeare Under Different Flags: The
Bard in German Classrooms from Hitler to
Honecker”
II. “A better Crop of Boys and Girls: The School
Gardening Movement, 1890-1920”
III. “Indian Heart/White Man’s Head: Native-
American Teachers in Indian Schools”
EXAMPLES OF HISTORICAL SOURCES
• Attendance records from two different school
districts over a 40-year period.
• A taped oral interview with a secretary of
education who served in the administrations
of three different U.S presidents.
• A diary kept by a woman teacher on the Ohio
frontier in the 1800s
• Samples of clothing worn by students in the
early nineteenth century in rural Georgia.
Primary VS Secondary Sources
PRIMARY SOURCES
• Prepared by an individual
who was a participant in or
direct witness.
• Example: an eyewitness
account of the opening of a
new school.
SECONDARY SOURCES
• Document prepared by an
individual who was not a
direct witness but obtained
description of the event
from someone else.
• Example: a newspaper
editorial commenting on a
recent teachers’ strike
would be an example.
Whenever possible, historians want to use
primary sources than secondary sources. Why?
SUMMARIZING INFORMATION OBTAINED
FROM HISTORICAL SOURCES
• When a researcher rely on secondary data sources, he or she
increases the chance of the data being less detailed/or less
accurate.
• Data one collects under categories related to the problem being
studied; and summarizing pertinent information.
• Categorical data simply indicate the total number of
objects, individuals, or events a researcher finds in a particular
category.
• Example : researcher who reports the number of students
completing a program in successive years, is reporting
categorical data.
• Notice that, researcher are looking for the frequency of certain
characteristics, objects, individuals, or events.
• Example : a study investigating the daily activities that occurred
in nineteenth century elementary schoolrooms. categories :

DING THE
RELEVANCE
AND
SIGNIFICANC
E OF WHAT
TO FIND
EVALUATING HISTORICAL SOURCES
External Criticism
 Refer to genuineness of the
documents researcher
uses.
 Wanted to know whether
the documents they find
were really prepared by the
author of the document
 Sometimes, falsified
documents can lead to
erroneous conclusions.
Internal Criticism
 Once satisfied that
document is genuine, they
need to determine if the
document is accurate.
 Both the accuracy of the
information contained in a
document and the
truthfulness of the author
need to be evaluated.
 Whereas external criticism
has to do with the nature
or authenticity of the
documents itself with what
documents says.
SAMPLE QUESTIONS OF INTERNAL
CRITICISM
• Who wrote this doc?
• For what purpose was the doc written?
• When was the doc written?
• Where was the doc written?
• Under what conditions was the doc written?
• Do different forms or versions of the doc exist?
SAMPLE QUESTIONS OF INTERNAL
CRITICISM
1. With regard to the author of the doc?
• Was the author present at the event he or she is describing?
• Was the author a participant in or an observer of the event?
• Was the author competent to describe the event?
• Was the author emotionally involved in the event?
• Did the author have any vested interest in the outcomes of the
event?
2. With regard to the contents of the doc?
• Do the contents make sense?
• Could the event described have occurred at that time?
• Would people have behaved as described?
• Does the language of the document suggest a bias of any sort?
• Do other versions of the event exist?
DATA ANAYLSIS IN HR
• Historical researchers must find ways to make
sense out of what is usually a very large amount
of data and then synthesize it into meaningful
narrative of their own.
• Operate sources from theoretical model that
helps them organize the information they have
collected.
• A coding system maybe useful.
• Some historians, used quantitative data to
validate interpretations derived from
documents, such as crime and unemployment
rates.
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF HR?
ADVANTAGES
• Permits investigation of topics
and questions that can be
studied
• Wider range of evidence than
most other methods
• Provides an alternative and
richer source of information
with other methodologies
DISADVANTAGES
• Measures used in other methods to
control for threats to internal validity
are simply not possible in a HR
• Limitations imposed by the nature of
the sample of documents and the
instrumentations process are likely to
be severe
• Unable to ensure representativeness
of the sample
• Possibility of bias due to researcher
characteristics
• Possibility any observed relationships
are due to a threat involving subject
characteristic.
• Difficult type of research to conduct
• Need skills of linguistics, chemist and
archeologist.
Q&A SESSION
1. What would you say is the most difficult aspects
of ethnographic research?
2. Ethnographic studies are rarely replicated. Why
do you supposed this is do?
3. Which of the steps involved in historical research
do you think is the hardest to complete? Why?
4. Do researchers can ensure the representatives of
the sample? Why?
5. Historians usually prefer to use primary rather
than secondary sources. Why?

Etnography and Historical research(RM EDU702)

  • 1. ETHNOGRAPHY RESEARCH & HISTORICAL RESEARCH ALVERA RAYMOND KISIL 2013683384 MIMI ZARINA BINTI ZAABAH 2013679304 SITI AMINAH BINTI KHALID 2012767551 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY EDU 702
  • 3. ETHNOGRAPHY • The most complex of all research • To obtain as holistic a picture as possible • A holistic perspective of:  A particular group of society  Institution  Setting  Situation  Sort of description that can only emerge from spending a lengthy amount of time intimately studying and living in a particular social setting (Van Maanen, 1982, p. 103-104)
  • 4. • Conducted in a natural context. • Emphasis on documenting everyday experiences of individuals by observing and interviewing • Involves intimate face-to-face interactions with participants. • Reflects participants’ perspectives and behaviour. • Data is collected primarily through fieldwork experiences. • Uses multiple data sourced including both quantitative and qualitative. • Key tools : in depth interviewing & continual observation
  • 5. • Investigates a small number of cases in detail. • Uses data analysis that involve the explicit interpretation of the meanings and functions of human actions • Interpretations of people’s actions and behaviour that are uncovered through the investigation of what they actually do and the reason for doing it. • Offers a representation or interpretation of people’s lives and behaviour. • Built on the points of understanding that occur between the researcher and participants. • Thick description • Non-judgmental orientation (researcher refrain from making value judgement)
  • 6. REQUIREMENT • the language of that culture • first-hand participation & interpretation • intensive work with a few informants from that setting
  • 7. CULTURE • the beliefs, values, and attitudes that structure the behavior patterns of a specific group of people • at a minimum, similarity must be shared by a significant number of members of a social group; shared in the sense of being behaviorally enacted, physically possessed, or internally thought • Subculture: group having social, economic, ethnic, or other traits distinctive enough to distinguish it from others within the same culture or society
  • 8. ETHNOGRAPHY - Tribes - Subcultures - Public realm - Organizations Kinds of data: - Interviews - Field notes - Texts - Visual data - Transcripts What can be studied:
  • 9. AIMS 1. Seeing: through the eyes of the people being observed 2. Description: paying attention to the mundane details 3. Contextualism : conveying messages in a complete manner so that understand the wider social and historical context 4. Process: viewing social life as involving interlocking series of events 5. Flexible research design: adapting research methods to various situations as they unfold 6. Avoiding early use of theories and concepts
  • 10. SAMPLING • Typically small (often only a few individuals ,or a single class)
  • 11. DOING ETHNOGRAPHY 4 Separate Sets of Notes Needed: 1. Short notes made at the time 2.Expanded notes made as soon as possible after the field session 3. A fieldwork journal to record problems and ideas that arise during each stage of field work 4.A provisional running record of analysis and interpretation (Spradley, 1979)
  • 12. In order to increase reliability creating contact summary sheets is suggested. Why Important: 1. Guide planning 2. Suggests new or revised codes/themes 3. Coordinates several fieldworkers work 4. Serves as a reminder of the contact at a later date 5. Serves as the basis for data analysis
  • 13. Questions for Contact Summary Sheets: 1. What people, events, or situations were involved? 2. What were the main themes or issues in the contact? 3. Which research questions did the contact bear most centrally on? 4. What new hypotheses, speculations, or guesses about the field situations were suggested by the contact? 5. Where should the fieldworker place most energy during the next contact, and what sorts of information should be sought?
  • 14. DATA ANALYSIS • Triangulation • Key events • Visual representation • Statistics • Crystallization
  • 16. CRITIQUE OF ETHNOGRAPHIC RESEARCH ADVANTAGES One of the most valuable aspects is the depth of understanding Can challenge ‘taken for granted’ assumptions DISADVANTAGES Takes a long time Does not have much breadth It can be difficult for some to write up the findings for a journal article
  • 17. METHODOLOGICAL ISSUES Social researchers assumes a “learning role,” so many scientific type questions will not work when conducting social science research. There are several methodological issues to consider.
  • 18. ISSUES 1. Defining a research problem a) avoid early specification of definitions hypothesis - puts too many constraints on what you’re observing b) develop animating questions to consider - narrow and focus - limit your research topic 2. Choosing a research site a) “case the joint” 3. Gaining access: - closed or private - open or public
  • 19. 4. Finding an identity a. Observers may change the situation just by their presence 5. Looking as well as listening a. explain the situation as you would to a sighted person who is blindfolded 6. Recording observations a. must decide what is the best format to record note in b. must decide what to “weed out” c. analyze as you go/catagorize
  • 20. THE TITLES OF STUDIES: • Gang-Related Gun Violence.” • “The Dignity of Job-Seeking Men.” • “Telling the Code of the Street.” • Streets, Sidewalks, Stores, and Stories. • “The Power of Names.” 7 • “On Thick Description and Narrative Inquiry in Music Education.” 8 • “Inside High School: The Student’s Perspective.”
  • 21. For example Franz Boas studied the indigenous people of the north west Pacific coast, Alaska and Siberia. Photographs of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition which Boas was involved in can be found by following this link: http://anthro.amnh.org/anthropology/databases/pho to_jesup.htm EXAMPLES OF ETHNOGRAPHY
  • 22. • “Ethnographic research is, in many respects, the most complex of all research methods…” (Helen et al. ,2012)
  • 24. WHAT IS HISTORICAL RESEARCH? Focuses on the past. Is the systematic collection and evaluation of data to describe, explain, and thereby understand action or events that occurred sometime in the past There’s no manipulation or control of variables
  • 25. THE PURPOSE OF HISTORICAL RESEARCH To make people aware of what has happened in the past so they may learn from past failures and successes To learn how things were done in the past to see if they might be applicable to present-day problems and concerns. To assist in prediction. If a particular idea or approach has been tried before, even under somewhat different circumstances, past results may offer policy makers some ideas about how present plans may turn out. To test hypotheses concerning relationships or trends. To understand present educational practices and policies more fully.
  • 26. STEPS IN HR? Defining the problem Locating relevant sources Summarizing information obtained from historical sources Evaluating historical sources
  • 27. DEFINING THE PROBLEM • Purpose of a historical study in education is to describe clearly and accurately some aspect of the past as it related to education or schooling • Researchers aim to do more than just describe, they want to go beyond description to clarify and explain and sometimes to correct • In HR problem maybe selected for study for which insufficient data are available. • Data of interest, such as diaries or maps from a particular period cannot be located in historical research.
  • 28. LOCATING RELEVANT SOURCES CATEGORIES OF SOURCES After researchers has decided on the problem or question to be investigate, the search of sources begins. DOCUMENTS - Written or printed documents which have been produced in some form or another (annual reports, artwork, bills, books, legal records, newspapers, magazines, diaries, co urt records and etc.) - Published or unpublished. NUMERICAL RECORDS - Any type of numerical data in printed records include any type of numerical data in printed form: test scores, attendance figures, census report, school budgets. ORAL STATEMENTS - Another valuable source of information for the historical researcher are the statements people make orally. - interviews, stories, myths, tales, legen ds, chants, songs, a nd other form of oral expression. RELICS - Any object whose physical or visual characteristics can provide some information about the past. Examples furniture, artwork, clothing, buildings, monuments, equip ment.
  • 29. Examples of Historical Studies I. “Shakespeare Under Different Flags: The Bard in German Classrooms from Hitler to Honecker” II. “A better Crop of Boys and Girls: The School Gardening Movement, 1890-1920” III. “Indian Heart/White Man’s Head: Native- American Teachers in Indian Schools”
  • 30. EXAMPLES OF HISTORICAL SOURCES • Attendance records from two different school districts over a 40-year period. • A taped oral interview with a secretary of education who served in the administrations of three different U.S presidents. • A diary kept by a woman teacher on the Ohio frontier in the 1800s • Samples of clothing worn by students in the early nineteenth century in rural Georgia.
  • 31. Primary VS Secondary Sources PRIMARY SOURCES • Prepared by an individual who was a participant in or direct witness. • Example: an eyewitness account of the opening of a new school. SECONDARY SOURCES • Document prepared by an individual who was not a direct witness but obtained description of the event from someone else. • Example: a newspaper editorial commenting on a recent teachers’ strike would be an example. Whenever possible, historians want to use primary sources than secondary sources. Why?
  • 32. SUMMARIZING INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM HISTORICAL SOURCES • When a researcher rely on secondary data sources, he or she increases the chance of the data being less detailed/or less accurate. • Data one collects under categories related to the problem being studied; and summarizing pertinent information. • Categorical data simply indicate the total number of objects, individuals, or events a researcher finds in a particular category. • Example : researcher who reports the number of students completing a program in successive years, is reporting categorical data. • Notice that, researcher are looking for the frequency of certain characteristics, objects, individuals, or events. • Example : a study investigating the daily activities that occurred in nineteenth century elementary schoolrooms. categories :
  • 33. EXAMPLE OF HISTORIANS ENGAGE IN RESEARCH ASSUMPTION DIVIDE WORKS FILLING NOTEBOOKS WITH FACTS WRITE FROM BEGINNING TO THE END BEGIN TO WRITE AFTER CAPITAL SOURCES MORE WRITING, BE TTER UNDERSTAN DING THE RELEVANCE AND SIGNIFICANC E OF WHAT TO FIND
  • 34. EVALUATING HISTORICAL SOURCES External Criticism  Refer to genuineness of the documents researcher uses.  Wanted to know whether the documents they find were really prepared by the author of the document  Sometimes, falsified documents can lead to erroneous conclusions. Internal Criticism  Once satisfied that document is genuine, they need to determine if the document is accurate.  Both the accuracy of the information contained in a document and the truthfulness of the author need to be evaluated.  Whereas external criticism has to do with the nature or authenticity of the documents itself with what documents says.
  • 35. SAMPLE QUESTIONS OF INTERNAL CRITICISM • Who wrote this doc? • For what purpose was the doc written? • When was the doc written? • Where was the doc written? • Under what conditions was the doc written? • Do different forms or versions of the doc exist?
  • 36. SAMPLE QUESTIONS OF INTERNAL CRITICISM 1. With regard to the author of the doc? • Was the author present at the event he or she is describing? • Was the author a participant in or an observer of the event? • Was the author competent to describe the event? • Was the author emotionally involved in the event? • Did the author have any vested interest in the outcomes of the event? 2. With regard to the contents of the doc? • Do the contents make sense? • Could the event described have occurred at that time? • Would people have behaved as described? • Does the language of the document suggest a bias of any sort? • Do other versions of the event exist?
  • 37. DATA ANAYLSIS IN HR • Historical researchers must find ways to make sense out of what is usually a very large amount of data and then synthesize it into meaningful narrative of their own. • Operate sources from theoretical model that helps them organize the information they have collected. • A coding system maybe useful. • Some historians, used quantitative data to validate interpretations derived from documents, such as crime and unemployment rates.
  • 38. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF HR? ADVANTAGES • Permits investigation of topics and questions that can be studied • Wider range of evidence than most other methods • Provides an alternative and richer source of information with other methodologies DISADVANTAGES • Measures used in other methods to control for threats to internal validity are simply not possible in a HR • Limitations imposed by the nature of the sample of documents and the instrumentations process are likely to be severe • Unable to ensure representativeness of the sample • Possibility of bias due to researcher characteristics • Possibility any observed relationships are due to a threat involving subject characteristic. • Difficult type of research to conduct • Need skills of linguistics, chemist and archeologist.
  • 39. Q&A SESSION 1. What would you say is the most difficult aspects of ethnographic research? 2. Ethnographic studies are rarely replicated. Why do you supposed this is do? 3. Which of the steps involved in historical research do you think is the hardest to complete? Why? 4. Do researchers can ensure the representatives of the sample? Why? 5. Historians usually prefer to use primary rather than secondary sources. Why?
