PDF-(EBOOK)-From Notes to Narrative: Writing Ethnographies That Everyone Can Read (Chicago

Ethnography centers on the culture of everyday life So it is ironic that most scholars who do research on the intimate experiences of ordinary people write their books in a style that those people cannot understand In recent years the ethnographic method has spread from its original home in cultural anthropology to fields such as sociology marketing media studies law criminology education cultural studies history geography and political science  Yet while more and more students and practitioners are learning how to write ethnographies there is little or no training on how to write ethnographies well  From Notes to Narrative picks up where methodological training leaves off  Kristen Ghodsee an awardwinning ethnographer addresses common issues that arise in ethnographic writing Ghodsee works through sentencelevel details such as word choice and structure She also tackles biggerpicture elements such as how to incorporate theory and ethnographic details how to effectively deploy dialogue and how to avoid distracting elements such as long block quotations and intext citations She includes excerpts and examples from model ethnographies The book concludes with a bibliography of other useful writing guides and nearly one hundred examples of eminently readable ethnographic books.

After years of preparation and anticipation, many students arrive at college without any real knowledge of the ins and outs of college life. They�ve been focused on finding the right school and have been carefully guided through the nuances of the admissions process, but too often they have little knowledge about how college will be different from high school or what will be expected of them during that crucial first year and beyond.�Written by an award-winning teacher, How to Succeed in College (While Really Trying) provides much-needed help to students, offering practical tips and specific study strategies that will equip them to excel in their new environment. Drawing on years of experience teaching at a variety of campuses, from large�research universities to small liberal arts colleges, Jon B. Gould gives readers the lay of the land and demystifies the college experience. In the course of the book, students will learn how to identify the best instructors, how to choose classes and settle on a major, how to develop effective strategies for reading and note taking, and how to write good papers and successfully complete exams. Because much of the college experience takes place outside of the classroom, Gould also advises students on how to effectively manage their cocurricular activities, work obligations, and free time, as well as how to take advantage of the typically untapped resources on every campus. With candid advice and insights from a seasoned insider, this guide will leave students better prepared not only to succeed in college but to enjoy it as well. Each year, 700,000 students from around the world come to the United States and Canada to study. For many, the experience is as challenging as it is exciting.� Far from home, they must adapt to a new culture, new university system, and in many cases, a new language. The process can be overwhelming, but as Charles Lipson�s Succeeding as an International Student in the United States and Canada assures us, it doesn�t have to be. ����������� Succeeding is designed to help students navigate the myriad issues they will encounter�from picking a program to landing a campus job.

In addition it explains the rules of academic honesty as they are understood in U.S. and Canadian universities. ����������� Life beyond the classroom is also covered, with handy sections on living on or off campus, obtaining a driver�s license, setting up a bank account, and more. The comprehensive glossary addresses both academic terms and phrases heard while shopping or visiting a doctor. There is even a chapter on the academic calendar and holidays in the�United States�and Canada.���������� Coming to a new country to study should be an exciting venture, not a baffling ordeal. Now, with this trustworthy resource, international students have all the practical information they need to succeed, in and out of the classroom.
