Workshop participants are invited to bring questions about their plans for using ethnography. Each person (or pair or team) will provide a three to five sentence summary of their project and formulate at least one question on methods of data collection (field) and/or analysis (field-text) and/or reporting (text). Participants may prepare statements in advance or they may compose them during the course of the workshop (or during "breaks"). This is not a formal requirement for registration. We anticipate utilization of a large audience format for this final segment of the workshop. A presenter-moderated discussion of these questions-issues will permit an exploration of multiple facets of FIELD and TEXT within ethnography; this is a time for Questions-Answers through audience discussion rather than private consultation.

Learning Objectives:
Recognize aspects of decision-making used in ethnography in/for public health
