Listen "Portraiture as Pedagogy: Learning Research through Context and Methodology"
Episode Synopsis
The International Journal of Education & the Arts article "Portraiture as Pedagogy" explores the use of portraiture as a qualitative research methodology, particularly within the context of arts education. The authors, a research team of graduate students and a faculty member, share their experiences using portraiture in an urban arts high school project. They emphasize the pedagogical benefits of this approach, highlighting how it allows researchers to negotiate boundaries, build relationships, and confront issues of representation through firsthand experience. The article presents individual "studies" that illustrate methodological challenges encountered during the research process, such as building trust, addressing race, and navigating researcher positionality. The authors argue that portraiture's strength lies in its capacity to generate new questions and promote reflexivity, rather than providing definitive answers.keepSave to notecopy_alldocsAdd noteaudio_magic_eraserAudio OverviewschoolBriefing doc
