"We Need Both": Combining Video-Cued Multivocal Ethnographic Methods and Traditional Fieldwork in Samoan Head Start Policy Research
Henward, Allison Sterling; Turituri, Ronald; Tauaa, Mene
Anthropology & Education Quarterly, v50 n3 p367-373 Sep 2019
This article describes how, in our research with Head Start teachers in American Samoa, we combined video-cued multivocal ethnographic method (VCE) with traditional ethnographic approaches to understand our interlocutors' perspectives on curriculum and pedagogy, and the contrast between them and mainland US teachers using the same federally endorsed curriculum. We provide illustrative examples of how the inclusion of VCE allowed for meaningful dialogue among informants and researchers, revealing Samoan teachers' cultural sustainable approaches to curriculum.
