Conducting Online Ethnography during COVID-19: Methodological Reflections from a Kindergarten Classroom
Anthropology & Education Quarterly, v54 n3 p297-306 Sep 2023
In this reflection, I contextualize my own experiences conducting educational ethnography in a synchronous online kindergarten classroom during the COVID-19 pandemic. I highlight how conducting research in online classrooms transforms ethnographic research methodologies and concepts such as the field site. I offer four suggestions, derived from my experiences and guided by an un-sited approach to this hybrid online field site, to conceptualize a more fluid approach for studying online schooling in general.
