Abstract

This paper reviews the process from the author’s original intention of observation and initial interesting topics to the summary and reflection of shortcomings in the observation process. In the middle parts, it comes through three sample sources which are observed records with ethnographic research method. The author compared her field notes and the field notes in these three articles and provided the advantages and disadvantages of her field notes. The reflection of recorded field notes is important for the growth of an ethnographer. A good reflection allows a researcher to learn to be more careful in the process of ethnography and to think deeply about the observation.
