On writing educational ethnographies
de Eve Gregory, Jean Conteh, Chris Kearney, Aura Mor
"Here is a departure from existing volumes on educational research methods. This book is about writing ethnographic dissertations and provides examples of successful ethnographic studies that have earned doctorates. It is a core reader for students pursuing ethnographic research at Masters, EdD or PhD level." "The book provides an overview of the value of an ethnographic approach to researching issues of diversity in education and offers models of writing for each stage of the work. The authors each relate how they went about writing their study and describe the difficulties they encountered. This makes compelling reading and offers a moving personal and professional rationale for ethnography as a research approach. The result is an excellent model and guide for new researchers, especially inexperienced writers or part-time students such as teachers, on how to go about writing postgraduate research dissertations."--Jacket.
