Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mia's study is focused on a specific phenomenon (achievement testing) in a specific context (Taiwanese gifted schools), indicating that it is an example of an ethnographic case study. Feminist ethnography would involve exploring the experiences of women and gender issues, life history would involve a detailed account of an individual's life, and autoethnography would involve the researcher examining their own experiences and personal narratives as a means of understanding a social phenomenon. None of these options fit Mia's study as described.
