Delivery mode: Seminar I & II

During methodology sessions I & II:

Methodology sessions I & II will introduce students to the research methodologies and methods employed by researchers and creative media artists. The instructor will give an overview of qualitative and quantitative research and make a detailed presentation of the various methods employed in research, depending on the research topic and/or creative project idea at hand as well as their limitations. Several examples of discipline-related research will be discussed during both sessions. The sessions will conclude with guidelines on how students should present proposed methodology in their major project proposal (last portfolio assignment).

After sessions I & II:

Students should read the following material to further build on the knowledge they gained:

Essential reading on research methodologies and methods:

Leavy (2017), Research Design : Quantitative, Qualitative, Mixed Methods, Arts-Based, and Community-Based Participatory Research Approaches

Learning journal:

students could reflect on the material they studied and on the ways they could use it for expanding their knowledge on specific methodologies and methods while preparing for their major project proposal.
