- An engaging introduction to the skills of ethnographic research. Chapters introduce students to various aspects of field research -- cultures, texts, people, places, language -- by explaining ethnographic research skills and offering short writing assignments that let students practice their skills. Students can work on a single large field study or a series of shorter fieldwork assignments; in either case, the writing they do can become part of a research portfolio. FieldWorking can be used for field research in a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, cultural studies, and more. - A wide range of examples from both professional and student writers. FieldWorking includes 36 readings from different disciplines and genres and reflects a range of voices (Horace Miner, Gloria Naylor, Maxine Hong Kingston, William Least Heat-Moon, Oliver Sacks). Almost half of the readings are new to this edition. There are now five complete student research essays as well as numerous shorter student examples. - Writing skills in every chapter. Two chapters are devoted entirely to the writing process. Chapter Two shows students at the initial fieldnotes stage how the rhetorical concepts of self, audience, and voice are integrated to their research, and Chapter Eight guides students from rough draft to final, polished product. In addition, every chapter features "FieldWriting, " a discussion of writing strategies central to the chapter's focus.
