APPLYING ETHNOGRAPHIC APPROACHES IN CULTURE AND LANGUAGE TEACHING

Abstract:

This article is devoted to considering the application of ethnographic approaches in teaching culture and language, highlighting the importance of understanding cultural contexts and social dynamics in the language learning process. The study utilizes qualitative and secondary data analysis methods, examining various existing scientific research to provide insights into how ethnography can enhance language instruction. By integrating ethnographic techniques, educators can foster a more contextually relevant language learning experience that goes beyond grammar and vocabulary to include cultural norms, values, and practices.
