From this article I learned a lot about Ethnography and how
it applies to Wayfinding. This article mentions what things an ethnographer
should look for which are the cultural norms, process on how people get things
done, how people make sense of the world around them, and people organize
things, what roles to people assume and what do they carry with. I learned that
these are some of things that can help solve problems like for instance
navigation for Wayfinding. However wahat really caught my attention was the
ethnographic process. It really helped my group members and I think about how
we should solve our problem form this Wayfinding project. First, we identify
the problem, which was navigating through Budig. Then we all reestablish the
problem and brainstormed different ideas on how to fix. When we observed Budig
to gather data and observe the KU students in there surroundings. After doing
this we found way easier to try fix our problem because we gather a great
amount of data to help us get a great start in our Wayfinding project. In
conclusion, I found this article very beneficial in helping us fixing our
navigation on KU campus.
