Ethnographic research attempts to understand the culture or
way of life from the point of view of participant (Greenstein and Davis,
2013). Using this approach I would need
to observe teens within their natural environment.
Possibly in a school setting
or after school programs that would allow me to observe their classrooms or
after school activities.
Ward (2005), states that grounded theory focuses on
understanding how individuals make meaning of their personal experiences
(p.472). If this approached is used it would be through an open table
discussion followed by a survey with some open ended questions, allowing the
participants to expound on their personal experiences giving the researcher a
deeper understanding.
Sprenkle & Piercy (2005) state there are Two levels of
phenomenological inquiry available to a therapist-researcher: the dialogue
within a family about a particular phenomenon, and the dialogue between the
family and therapist-researcher about that phenomenon. The Phenomenology approach is described as a
research approach that is designed to provide deep meaning for the participants
and researchers (Sprenkle & Piercy, 2005).
This approached would be used to address this topic by conducting
interviews with teens and the adults in their lives about sex education.
These methods of research explore the participants on a
deeper level with the idea of having a better understand of the participants as
it applies to the topic.
Can you
