2) development of your research strategy: use the research methods we have read about, discussed in class, and practiced using. when developing your data gathering strategy consider practical issues such as a) ethical issues associated with human subjects, b) language barriers, c) access to people, and d) the context of your field site. use the articles on methods in developing a rationale for the methods use choose.

3) identification of potential ethical issues: choose among the three human subjects categories: minimal risk, exemption, and int'l engagement.
