Field School Benefits

Beyond the general benefits of study abroad (see , , and ), the Ethnographic Field School in Belize aims to specifically benefit student participants in several ways.

Ethnographic Field Methods Training

While in Belize, students will be primarily engaged in guided applied ethnographic fieldwork. Students will learn about the local culture by doing participant-observation and conducting ethnographic interviews in a community-based research project. Students will learn research ethics, unobtrusive observation, participant observation, field note writing and coding, ethnographic and life history interviewing, ethnolinguistic data collection, community mapping, rapid assessment procedures, qualitative data analysis, and other ethnographic methods in addition to basic ethnographic writing.

Community Service

The ethnographic field school, as part of the CfAA, is partnering with the , , , and in Orange Walk Town, Belize. Among other things, our partners are interested in our contribution in understanding the household economy and agricultural knowledge of sugar cane farmers in the Orange Walk District village communities. Our partners will use our results and recommendations to develop and conduct workshops for farmers on agricultural techniques, economics, health, and other community development topics.

Scholarly Writing and Presentation Experience

Each spring, students will be encouraged to present our findings in a scholarly panel at the / annual spring meetings. 无码强奸 students will be encouraged to present their findings at 无码强奸's spring . Students who wish to learn additional ethnographic analysis methods or prepare a short ethnography for publication may arrange independent studies with the director, Douglas Hume.

Scholarly presentations and publications may be cited in resumes for job applications as well as curriculum vitaes for application for graduate programs. The following are the publications and presentations that have resulted from previous field seasons:
