Ethnography Reflection

In both of the ethnography readings I liked how they talked about really talking with people and watching people. The idea of “what people say vs what they do” was a pretty interesting point to me, and it’s very true. They may say that they eat healthy all the time and you see them eating at McDonalds and later at home with a box of cookies at their bedside. I think it’s a really smart way to get good information from people.

I also like that they really break down the process of ethnography. Getting deeper into what you are trying to convey to the reader. Defining te problem and rethinking that problem, defining the contexts and defining the sample, and so on. 

It’s getting to know your audience/user and making what is beneficial to you and them.
