From the Paper:

"Ethnography is an approach to studying and learning about a person or group of people. Typically, ethnography involves studying a small group of subjects in their natural environment. Some researchers describe the study of ethnography as a detailed account of social behavior based on in-depth field studies. An ethnographer attempts to gain understanding of the socialization of the subject being studied. Some experts have suggested that socialization is the process, where through contact with other human beings, a child becomes a self-aware, more knowledgeable and skilled in the ways of a given culture and environment."
