Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Ethnography focuses on the culture of a group of people and relies on extensive field work that usually includes participant observation and in-depth interviews with key informants. Ethnographers strive to acquire an emic (insider's) perspective of a culture rather than an etic (outsider's) perspective. Phenomenologists seek to discover the essence and meaning of a phenomenon as it is experienced by people, mainly through in-depth interviews with people who have had the relevant experience.
