10An ethnographic study should use the [blank_start]methods[blank_end] that create the most [blank_start]holistic[blank_end] understanding of the [blank_start]cultural[blank_end] system or group being studied.

13A central tenet of ethnography is that people's behaviour can not be understood in context.
- ATrue
- BFalse
14A central tenet of [blank_start]ethnography[blank_end] is that people's behaviour [blank_start]can only[blank_end] be understood in context.
The ethnographer is interested in the [blank_start]socio-cultural[blank_end] contexts and processes in which people live their lives as well as the meaning systems that motivate them.
People and their actions, behaviours and beliefs are examined within the cultural and [blank_start]societal[blank_end] context in which they take place.
The focus is not on separate [blank_start]behavioural[blank_end] acts but on how behavioural processes are linked.- Aethnography

16The primary aim of ethnography is to understand the socio-cultural contexts, processes and meanings of a cultural system from the perspective of the members of that system and produce a descriptive reconstruction of the host communities' own construction of their worlds.

38Indigenous research methodologies include a [blank_start]relational[blank_end] view where the researcher interacts with the knowledge holders. Indigenous research is built on the [blank_start]strength[blank_end] of the relationships, is [blank_start]co-created, reciprocal[blank_end] and the outcomes become [blank_start]collectively held knowledge[blank_end] with the final product requiring [blank_start]community approval[blank_end]. Knowledge holders can also be known as [blank_start]co-researchers[blank_end] to show respect and trust.

- Cco-created, reciprocal
- Dcollectively held knowledge
- Ecommunity approval
- Fco-researchers
- Gparticipants

39When conducting KM research, disrespect and misappropriation of knowledge or resources can be protected from by establishing [blank_start]a direct and long-term[blank_end] relationship.
The [blank_start]more removed and distant[blank_end] a relationship is (i.e. by maintaining impartiality perhaps) the more likely to have breakages.
