Anna Hickey-Moody: Arts-Based Methods for Research with Children, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book offers a practical, methodological guide to conducting arts-based research with children by drawing on five years of the authors experience carrying out arts-based research with children in Australia and the UK. Based on the Australian Research Council-funded Interfaith Childhoods project, the authors describe methods of engaging communities and making data with children that foreground children s experiences and worldviews through making, being with, and viewing art. Framing these methods of doing, seeing, being, and believing through art as modes of understanding children s strategies for negotiating personal identities and values, this book explores the value of arts-based research as a means of obtaining complex information about children s life worlds that can be difficult to express verbally.
