Observation Part 2 of 2 Parts.

What this video discusses:

You can participate in the activity that you do research on or you can observe the event from the outside. You can, furthermore, observe the target for your research openly and with the consent of the people involved. It might under certain conditions be necessary to observe the target without them knowing that they are being observed. I discuss participant observation versus non-participant observation, overt observation versus covert observation and obstacle in the way of observation in this video.
