Institutional ethnography IE is a sociological method of inquiry. IE was created to explore the social relations that structure people s everyday lives. For the institutional ethnographer, ordinary daily activity becomes the site for an investigation of social organization. IE was first developed by Dorothy E. Smith as a Marxist feminist sociology for women, for people and is now used by researchers in social sciences, education, human services and policy research as a method for mapping the translocal relations that coordinate people s activities within institutions.

Video ethnography involves br Observation, including extensive filming of practitioners, br Allowing practitioners to view the video recorded material and reflexively discuss their practice, br Transforming practice through practitioner led change, and br Building the capacity for the ongoing and critical appraisal of practice. Video ethnographic methods seek to foreground practitioner knowledge, expertise, and insight into the dynamics of their own work processes see 1 Carroll, Iedema et al. 2008 . This is achieved by first talking with practitioners about their work and organizational processes, and by seeking an articulation of the social, professional, environmental, and organizational contingencies that both enable and constrain their practice. By allowing practitioners to discuss their practices in response to video footage clinicians and researchers gain insight into areas of practice that may be benefit from redesign. Video ethnography is contingent on the researcher gaining the trust of practitioners, on becoming familiar with the site and on being trusted to be present at time and in places where critical conducts are undertaken.

inline citations date January 2009 linguistics The Ethnography of communication EOC is a method of discourse analysis in linguistics , which draws on the anthropology anthropological field of ethnography . Unlike ethnography proper, though, it takes both language and culture to be constitutive as well as constructive. In their book Qualitative Communication Research Methods , communications scholars Thomas R. Lindlof and Bryan C. Taylor 2002 explain Ethnography of communication conceptualizes communication as a continuous flow of information, rather than as a segmented exchange of messages p. 44 . According to Deborah Cameron 2001 , EOC can be thought of as the application of ethnographic methods to the communication patterns of a group. Littlejohn & Foss 2005 recall that Dell Hymes suggests that cultures communicate in different ways, but all forms of communication require a shared code, communicators who know and use the code, a channel, a setting, a message form, a topic, and an event created by transmission of the message p. 312 . EOC can be used as a means by which to study the interactions among members of a specific culture or, what Gerry Philipsen 1975 calls a speech community.

The term was first used by Robert I.
