Field Studies

The ASC! research project field studies used a variety of research methods including critical and performance ethnography, discourse analysis of program materials, and semi-structured interviews with Art for Social Change (ASC) practitioners, educators, participants and researchers, as well as analysis of research-creation processes. Using a phenomenological, arts-based, collaborative approach, the field studies provided researchers with valuable insights and sources of data while also adapting research methodology from other disciplines. The field studies were analyzed through the lenses of teaching and learning in the field, evaluation/impact assessment and capacity building for partnerships.

L’équipe du projet ASC! s’est servi de méthodes variées lors de ses études sur le terrain. Elle a entre autres eu recours à l’ethnographie critique et de la performance, à l’analyse du discours dans le matériel des programmes, à des entrevues semi-structurées avec des praticiens, des éducateurs, des participants et des chercheurs dans le domaine de l’art pour le changement social (ACS), ainsi qu’à l’analyse des processus de recherche-création. Une démarche phénoménologique collaborative basée sur l’art a permis aux chercheurs de tirer de précieuses conclusions de leurs études sur le terrain et d’adapter des méthodologies de recherche empruntées à d’autres domaines. Les études sur le terrain ont été analysées dans une optique d’enseignement et d’apprentissage sur le terrain, d’évaluation des effets et de renforcement des capacités en matière de partenariat.
