Abstract

Traditionally, ethnography has been considered as one of the most important elements of distinction in social sciences such as anthropology and sociology. Although originally was applied to study small communities of the so-called “primitive societies”, it soon showed, in parallel, its potential in urban contexts, as the Chicago School demonstrated. Time has allowed it to continue showing its enormous plasticity as a social tool, reaching new fields of application, such as education. Based on the experience carried out around the Bachelor in Tourism and Leisure of the Ostelea School of Tourism and Hospitality, University of Lleida (UdL), this research shows the results of an ongoing process that seeks to analyze the capacity of the ethnographic methodology as an effective tool in teaching innovation processes.
