Research Plan
Sunstein and Chiseri-Srater describe working in the field for an anthropologist to mean, talking, listening, and recording, observing, participating, and sometimes even living in a particular place. The field is the site for doing research, and fieldworking is the process of doing it(1).

It is interesting to know that not only anthropologist does all of the tasks listed above, but fieldworkers also do the same thing. For any researcher to come up with a fantastic research work, he must learn the ways of the people like their language, culture, traditions, behaviors, etc. And above all, he should also be ready to live with and among the people to know all of these by taking daily fields notes and doing a conceptual memo with translation projects. This process is well detailed in chapters 1-2 of Fieldworking.
