Visualizing Research guides postgraduate students in art and design
through the development and implementation of a research project,
using the metaphor of a 'journey of exploration'. For use with a
formal programme of study, from masters to doctoral level, the book
derives from the creative relationship between research, practice
and teaching in art and design. It extends generic research
processes into practice-based approaches more relevant to artists
and designers, introducing wherever possible visual, interactive
and collaborative methods. The Introduction and Chapter 1 'Planning
the Journey' define the concept and value of 'practice-based'
formal research, tracking the debate around its development and
explaining key concepts and terminology. 'Mapping the Terrain' then
describes methods of contextualizing research in art and design
(the contextual review, using reference material); 'Locating Your
Position' and 'Crossing the Terrain' guide the reader through the
stages of identifying an appropriate research question and
methodological approach, writing the proposal and managing research
information. Methods of evaluation and analysis are explored, and
of strategies for reporting and communicating research findings are
suggested. Appendices and a glossary are also included. Visualizing
Research draws on the experience of researchers in different
contexts and includes case studies of real projects. Although
written primarily for postgraduate students, research supervisors,
managers and academic staff in art and design and related areas,
such as architecture and media studies, will find this a valuable
research reference. An accompanying website
www.visualizingresearch.info includes multimedia and other
resources that complement the book.
