Opis

Introducing readers to definitions and examples of arts-based educational research, this text presents tensions and questions in the field, and provides exercises for practice. It weaves together critical essays about arts-based research in the literary, visual, and performing arts with examples of artistic products of arts-based research (arts for scholarship's sake) that illuminate by example. Each artistic example is accompanied by a scholARTist's statement that includes reflection on how the work of art relates to the scholar's research interests and practices. The second edition provides updates over the past decade of increased arts-based educational research activity and new examples. Arts-Based Research in Education: Foundations for Practice helps readers understand what arts-based research is by tracing the history of the field and providing examples. Featuring a diverse range of contributors--very established scholars in educational and social science research as well those new to the field, it represents a variety of voices--scholars of color, queer and straight orientations, different ages, experience, and nationalities. End-of-chapter questions engage students in practicing arts-based inquiry and generate class discussion about the material. Beautiful illustrations of visual art, data-based poems, plays, short stories, and musical scores are included.
