Module 2 slides for Session 3 24.11.16 and 25.11.16

We had some very good discussions for this planning module - sorry the slides are so long - take what you need!

I am thinking about apple pie - so combined this with the idea that you only need a slice for the inquiry - so take on a topic that you can do during Module 3. Preparation is key!

Please see the blogs of Lois-May, Laura, Lizzie, Victoria, Lawrence, Ben, Megan, Lauren, Chloe and Kristina!!!

Arts-based research Campus Session 11th November

Arts-based Research

This campus session the theme was abut using art-based research for BAPP Arts - connecting with previous studies but also using a wider brief of arts-related sources and ideas to think about planning and doing the inquiry (ideas for this can begin in Module 1). I brought in a variety of sources as examples.

Please look at the blogs for Lizzie (M2) Charnelle (M3) Tom  (M3) Lily (M3) Victoria (M2) and on skype Taz (M2) Megan (M2) and Lucy (M1).

Leavy's definition of arts-based research:

Arts-based research practices area a set of methodological tools used by researched across disciplines during all phases of social research , including data generation, analysis , interpretation , and representation . These emerging tools adapt the tenets of the creative arts in order to address social research questions in holistic and engaged ways in which theory ad practice are intertwined. Arts-based practices draw on literary writing, music, dance, performance, visual art, film and other mediums. Representational forms include by are not limited to short stories., novels, experimental writing forms, graphic novels, comics, poems. parables, collages, paintings, drawings sculpture, 3-D art , quilts and needlework, performance scripts, theatrical performances, dances, films, and songs and musical scores (2015, p. 4).

Leavy also explains that transdisciplinarity in the Essentials of Trandisciplinary Research (2011) - this is not unrelated to arts-based research but perhaps extends how research and scholarship might benefits others. Lizzie found this paragraph particularly helpful...

What is Transdisciplinarity?
Transdisciplinarity is an approach to conducting social reserach that involves synergistic collaboration beween two or more disciplines with high levels of integration between the disciplinary sets of knowledge. Transdsiciplinary research practices are issue-or problem-centred and prioritize the problem at the centre of the research over discipline -specific concerns, theories or methods. Transdisciplinary resarch is responsive to (public) needs. Methodologically, transdisiplainrity research follows responsive or iterative methodologies and requires innovations, creativity, and flexibility and often employs participatory research design strategies. Transdisiplinarity has the potential to greatly enhance public scholarship.

I also introduced a source from media research.
In1964 Marsahll McLuhan wrote about the 'medium is the message' talking about things like the new cultural environment invented by television and our awareness in negotiating this environments - think media and the latest televised political campaigns...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImaH51F4HBw

We talked about the putting the knowledge into a current context - I described a story recenlty told to bme about the success of the recent production of Sweeney Todd that went from the Tooting Arts Centre to the West End and now Broadway.

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/23/theater/british-production-of-sweeney-todd-to-set-up-shop-off-broadway.html?_r=0

Activism

We also talked about how arts-based research could relate to social and cultural critiques using activism - e.g. stereotyping, scapegoating, politics (local, national and international).

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-32810887

Ideas from cultural criticism should not be used to prove something - but to understand the world in which we live and the the context for the coursework on BAPP Arts and did a few collective mind maps.

Module 2 - what should you be doing?

This is coming form some very good questions people are asking me about where they are supposed to be right now on Module 2.

What am I supposed to submit for the Module?
the proposal or plan, the critical reflection, the 3 forms

Module 2 - use the outline of the plan in your handbook to start drafting what you need to do for the inquiry- review the handbook please as it does outline what you need to submit. We help with the drafts with written feedback.

Ethics forms?
We also help you with your ethics forms - do download these form the MyLearning WBS3630 WBS site and have a start on these forms as they are required by the university and are part of the thinking process.

Sessions?
The final session is about the tools/methods that will help you gather data for your inquiry.
There are blogs going up about the use of arts-based research your inquiry plan.

How do I draft the inquiry research plan?
Use the heading form the guide in the Handbook with headings - answer questions like:
What have other practitioners and experts said about your topic/area of interest?
Who do you need to talk to to find out what your want to know? e.g. professional actors....
How will you do this ? 30 minutes interview in person and on Skype
write this clearly this in your plan and the ethics form
Gain permission from the gatekeeper to do that if you work in a company e.g the Employer/professional support form.

BAPP Arts and workplace peer input - through the SIGS or special interest groups - who have you talked to about your work on the course? so you are an active part of this process (thank you Rebecca for this conversation)

Critical reflection - hopefully you are talking note of things in a journal - don't forget you can use visual audio and audio-visual - the journal can be in many forms.
