| Inhalt | Dozent: Ian Grosvenor Much of qualitative research is dominated by language. Yet image making has spanned the evolution of human kind. From ancient cave drawings to the 20 billion photographs taken by Americans alone in 2012. We use images not only to represent the objective world but also to communicate our feelings. Taken cumulatively images are signifiers of a culture; taken in-dividually they are artefacts that provide particular information about our existence. Images provide researchers with a different order of data and also an alternative to the way that data is perceived by researchers. In recent years there has been a growing interest among some researchers to use images to enhance our understanding of the human condition. Using a mixture of lecture, workshop and critical readings the seminar will introduce students to the theory and practice of visual research. It will emphasise the wide variety of visual data available; paintings, photography, film and video. Strategies for locating and utilising this range of data will be examined, discussed and applied with an emphasis on issues of interpretation. Questions addressed in the seminar will include : How can visual sources help us to understand the spatial, material and sensory nature of the classroom ? Why is there a reluctance amongst researchers to use visual methods in their research ? What are the ethical issues involved in using a visual approach to research ? Keywords The visual turn; learning spaces; teacher-pupil interactions; materials and objects. |
