Additional info

How does one become a successful “linguistic ethnographer”? How can/should we teach the linguistic ethnographic concepts, methods and analytic dispositions? How can/should we facilitate the appropriation of linguistic ethnography by researchers from across the social sciences? This workshop explores these questions, and includes (a) discussion of practices from the University of Birmingham, Lancaster University, the Open University and the Ethnography, Language and Communication Researcher Development Initiative; (b) discussion of key issues arising from these presentations and from participants’ experiences; (c) participation of Frederick Erickson, Professor of Social Research Methodology, UCLA, who will serve as discussant.
