“Image Theatre and Digital Story-telling: Towards an Embodied Research Method for Professional Development in Higher Education”

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

This paper reports on research that I have been undertaking investigating the use of image theatre and digital storytelling with groups of university staff to gauge their thoughts, perceptions and experiences of the creative industries in higher education. In piloting these approaches as research methods specifically, I have been interested in comparing the responses that emerge from such active, participatory activities, which have ideas of embodied cognition at their centre, with the kind of material that emerges from focus groups and one-to-one interviews.
