Arts-Based Research Across Visual Media in Education: Expanding Visual Epistemology - Volume 2
About this ebook
The book aims to highlight some of the approaches that are not always centered in arts-based research. The visual takes center stage as authors lead with comics-based representations, among other forms of arts-based inquiry. These chapters follow on from the first collection and serve to expand thinking about merging creative methods with analysis and exploration in the world of education. From mixtapes to the curatorial, these chapters showcase the ways in which scholars explore the multitude of human experiences. This second volume covers, among other topics: comics in qualitative research, visual journaling, multimodal fieldnotes and discourse, and creative visual outputs.
It is suitable reading for graduate students and scholars interested in qualitative inquiry and arts-based methods, in education and the social sciences.
