This LITA web course explores the contextual inquiry research methodology
to better understand the intents and motivations behind user behavior. The
approach involves in-depth, participant-led sessions where users take on
the role of educator, teaching the researcher by walking them through tasks
in the physical environment in which they typically perform them. In this
session, learn what’s needed to conduct a Contextual Inquiry and how to
analyze the ethnographic data once collected.
