This course introduces you to the why, what and how of Linguistic Ethnography as a research method to investigate language use in society. Such a research approach constitutes a major strand of study in the UK, and LMS is the first linguistics department in Singapore to offer it as a course. More significantly, the skills taught in participant observation, designing and conducting interviews, and qualitative analysis of primary sources of data, are all transferable to actual prospective occupations (eg journalism, market research etc).
