The Social & Economic Impacts of Outer Continental
Shelf Activity on Families & Individuals (1998)
Case Study Background
● BARA* was to research the impacts of offshore employment on individuals
& families in two southern Louisiana communities.
● People involved in this study:
o Offshore oil workers & their spouses
o Community leaders
o School administrators
o Oil industry representatives
o Business leaders
o Social service providers
o Public school teachers
The Teacher-Researcher Teams
● 14 teacher-researchers from two different communities*
● They were trained in documenting a family tree of the families they studied
in order to see generational patterns of families in the oil industry
business.
● Occupational timelines were to be documented from these family trees in
order to see trends.
Identifying Families
● Teachers were to interview 3 families who were related to students in the
classroom
● One parent of the family had to be somehow involved with the oil
industry*
● Not all families were interested in the study
● Some teachers sent a letter to the entire class explaining the study and
other teachers hand picked families that were known to have a family
member related to working in the oil industry
● Something that was unique to this funds of knowledge study was the fact
that some of the teachers understood the dynamic structure of being a part
of an oil industry worker’s family**
Conducting the Interviews
● Underlying component of funds of knowledge is the building of trust and rapport
● Components analyzed were labor history of the family, family’s resources, coping
strategies & social networks
● Also analyzed were work schedules, work responsibilities, family’s accommodations
or resistance to demands of work.
o This led into conversations involving:
 Raising & disciplining children
 Household division of labor
 Coping with stress due to the absence of at least one family member due
to work
● Families also were to fill out a contact information sheet.
o Families identified possible family/friends that would be interested in
participating in the interviews
Study Groups
● Like other Funds of Knowledge studies, a study group was formed from the
two different Louisiana communities
o Teachers shared successes & difficulties
o Groups served as a check in and a way to make sure teacher-
researchers were on schedule
o Differences & similarities were shared between the two communities
● This funds of knowledge study gave perspective to both teachers who were
not familiar with an oil family* and even those who were a part of an oil
family**
Results
● As a result from the funds of knowledge study, students & teachers
participated in the following activities:
o Career study
o Oilfield-related webpage
 Students interviewed family members & gathered photos
o Teachers attended conferences and gave presentations on their
findings
Reflection Questions
● Are there any unique situations around the Chicagoland area that could be
viewed in the “Funds of Knowledge” lens? (i.e. Specific refugee
populations, neighborhoods, occupations, etc.)
● What could be benefits and/or disadvantages of being an “insider”
(someone who is a part of the group being studied)? Outsider (someone
who is not part of the group being studied)?
