But the method he prefers is called “participant observation,” an approach in which “you go and live with the people for an extended period of time, so you can start to learn how they think and feel and act.” In fact, Larsen considers participant observation to be a base line for all the research he does because “you gain an insight by participating in the culture.” 3 Tue, 03 Jul 2007 16:06:10 GMT http://syndicatemizzou.org/resources/liu/ipod/Liu06.m4v Education http://syndicatemizzou.org/resources/liu/ipod/Liu06.m4v As if Liu’s “plate” isn’t full enough, he also has his hand in a research project called GEON (Geoscience Network) supported by the National Science Foundation. This initiative involves a dozen institutions along with the San Diego Supercomputer Center. The goal is to create a prototype of geosciences cyberinfrastructure, so “that any scientist can have any kind of data at his or her fingertips.” 3 Tue, 02 Oct 2007 19:50:44 GMT
