P8786 Ethnographic methods in health research
Offers advanced training in the use of ethnographic methods in health
research. Explores a range of different qualitative research methods,
including participant observation, in-depth interviewing, oral
histories, life histories, and case studies, and examines the ways in
which these methods can be employed in developing ethnographic studies.
Readings draw on different methodological texts and guidelines, as well
as a range of published ethnographic studies of different health issues
in order to illustrate the use of different approaches. Students are
also expected to carry out hands-on observation and interviewing on a
regular basis, and receive feedback from the instructor and other class
participants on field notes, analysis, and interpretation of
ethnographic data.
