Culture, Ethnography, and Interaction: Penn Sociology Faculty

Workshop
What do you do with the data after you collect it? A conversation with faculty.
Sep 9, 2016 at - | 169 McNeil Building

In this informal Culture, Ethnography, and Interaction workshop, the qualitative researchers in the Department of Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania will have an informal discussion of the process through which sociologists make sense of the data they collect.  What do people do once they have their field notes and interview transcripts? What is the journey to a published work?  Please join us to hear Amada Armenta, Charles Bosk, David Grazian, Onoso Imoagene, and Robin Leider on this important topic. Annette Lareau will moderate. The workshop will be held in the McNeil Building in room 169.  Charles Bosk has graciously shared three different papers he wrote --- for three different audiences – with the same data set:

Medicine and the Radiant City - The Art of Medicine 

To Leave or to Lie? Are Concerns about a Shift-Work Mentality and Eroding Professionalism as a Result of Duty-Hour Rules Justified? - The Milbank Quarterly

Training for Efficiency: Work, Time, and Systems-Based Practice in Medical Residency - Journal of Health and Social Behavior (with Julia E. Szymczak)
