Ethnography in educational evaluation
The progress that ethnographies have been making in educational evaluation and how ethnography has adapted to the educational sphere is analysed in this book. A diverse selection of case studies illustrates the intricacies of the issues and concerns involved in this process of adaptation. The book is divided into three sections. The first presents an overview of the state-of-the-art and a discussion of ethnographic techniques in evaluation research. A series of illustrative case studies of ethnographic evaluation are explored and examined in the second section. The case studies include national studies as well as local and international level studies. The final section addresses theoretical and ethical dilemmas in ethnographic evaluation. --From publisher's description.
