Recently, in class, we’ve learned a bit about ethnography. In the book “Writing Ethnographic Field Notes” Emerson, Fretz, and Shaw define ethnographic research as: “the study of groups and people as they go about their everyday lives (page 1). Furthermore, the authors put forth that, “ethnographers ultimately produce some sort of written account of what they have seen, heard, and experienced in the field. But different ethnographers, and the same ethnographer at different times, turn experience and observation into written texts in different ways” (page 17).

In light of this theme, I’ve come across a list of tips on How to Write Ethnographic Field Notes.
