Combining ethnography with action research
The study abroad program enabled my colleague and friend Claudia Urrea and myself to work with a group of students on how the one-laptop-per-child initiative was being implemented in Costa Rica. Students worked in teams developing an ethnographic portrait of a school school. Based on that description and working with the teachers, we developed four interventions.

Traditional Classrooms 11/30/2011
Since we found that many of the teachers still did not have computers in their classrooms, we started to observe the traditional classroom routines. Teams of students videotaped, took fieldnotes and interviewed teachers and students.
They used these observations to write a paper on activity theory, and the Vygotskian construct of “zone of proximal development.”

In this interview, we hear the teacher describe the activity of the students. Note the types of questions the teacher asks and also, how the formal language is being woven into the teacher’s speech.
