This field guide and workbook is comprised of a series of ethnographic encounters set in a computer-based learning environment. It provides readers with a realistic problem-solving learning experience in a novel cultural setting. EthnoQuest has been designed to answer the knotty question: "What is fieldwork really like?" Mirrors an ethnographer's experiences in the village of Amopan, Mexico. Participants must complete the necessary grant proposals, decide what to pack, and travel to Amopan to start their research. Each game within the simulation builds on what has already been done, so that game 2 (First Encounters) asks the player to find a place to live, game 3 (Who's Who in Amopan) allows them to complete a census of the village of Amopan and to create a village map, and so on. Each game includes sophisticated graphics and original video that allow players to experience realistic outcomes based on their responses and reactions to questions.
