Exploring the Mundane: An Exercise Using
Ethnomethodological Research Methods to
Examine Everyday Spaces 79
Judith £. Rosenstein, United States Naval Academy

campus, applying concepts such as reliability and validity, including
inter-rater reliability, triangulation, and operationalization.
South Park Analysis 88
Kristin L. Cherry, PhD, Central Methodist University
Here, you will complete a sample analysis of social issues in an episode
oí South Park. This is a capstone assignment, which will help you learn
about content analysis while reinforcing the concepts of inter-coder
reliability, generalizability, objectivity, intersubjectivity, research
questions, sampling method, and code sheet.
Chapter 5 Qualitative Methods, Interview/Focus groups 91
Research Project on Qualitative Data Coding
and Analysis—Christmas Wishes 93
Chunyan Song, PhD, California State University, Chico
This fun and interactive assignment is designed to provide you with
a hands-on learning experience of qualitative data coding and
analysis. In addition, you will also get practice on conceptualization
and quantitative analysis skills using crosstabs.
Exploring Ethnography: Understanding Sport Communities 96
Diana Tracy Cohen, PhD, Central Connecticut State University
This sport ethnography project will incorporate two methodological
approaches, interviewing and observation. Together, these methods
will help give you a more comprehensive understanding of people
