This workshop is open to University of Warwick PhD students and early career researchers who are interested in using ethnography in health research, particularly in the global south. You may already be using ethnographic methods and want to deepen your knowledge and skills or you may be considering using this method for your research and want to learn more.

The workshop will be facilitated by anthropologists Dr Ursula Read and Dr Bulbul Siddiqi who both have extensive experience of using ethnography in a range of contexts, both in traditional anthropological long-term fieldwork and as part of larger mixed methods global health studies. The workshop will feature guest speakers from Nigeria, Ethiopia and the UK who will share experiences of engaging with ethnographic methods in their research.

Playful and game-based assessments have been widely applied across disciplines (Kim et al., 2018): from e-quizzes to assess if learning is taking place (often used as formative and self-assessment tools to boost learner engagement and performance (Zainuddin et al., 2020)) to simulation and escape rooms that enable students to make informed decisions based on their learning and test their transferable skills alongside subject knowledge (Bistulfi, 2021). However, very often the concept of assessment gamification is misunderstood and unnecessarily complicated.
