Ethnography in foreign language teaching is
seen not as a source of material for
teachers, but as a methodology to be
adopted by the teachers/learners in order to
learn/explore the foreign language culture.
The aim of this paper is neither to
emphasise the necessity to teach the target
language culture nor to trace the history of
teaching culture along or within a foreign
language but to conceptualise an
ethnographic approach to teaching culture.
As a process approach to teaching culture,
this approach repositions learners as
researchers and researched and teachers as
facilitators. Following ethnographic
methodology, the learners look at culture
through an ethnographer’s lens. They make
use of ethnographic techniques such as
observations, description and interpretation
of the “behavioural repertoire” of a given
society to generate new knowledge.
