How it works and how to access

The Ethnographic Explorer (TEE) can be used to:

  1. Elicit people’s knowledge about a given set of cases (sets of people / places / objects / events / ideas), using an online version of a reiterated card sorting exercise known as Hierarchical Card Sorting.
  2. Query that structured knowledge, through a sequence of binary comparison questions.
  3. Explore the relationships between the results of two or more of those queries, using scatter plots and relationship measures.
  4. Download sort and query results, including if-then prediction rules, describing what configurations of case attributes are associated with the presence of another attribute.

TEE has two web pages:

  1. Settings: Where the parameters of a TEE exercise are set up by an exercise Facilitator.
  2. Sort & Compare & Contrast: Where one or more Participants answer questions and where they and others can explore the responses to date. The questions are of two types:
    • Sorting questions.
    • Comparison questions about sort results.
    • Contrast: Where anyone can explore the relationships between different comparisons.

Each page has save/download/reload options
