Visualizing Research: A Guide to the Research Process in Art and Design by Julia

Description: Visualizing Research by Julian Malins, Carole Gray Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Drawing on pioneering examples of doctoral research, this book offers postgraduate students a guide to those methodologies most directly relevant to research in art and design which will enable readers to negotiate the challenges of their studies and reach a meaningful, fulfilling destination. Publisher Description 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 finally 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 includes multimedia and other resources that complement the book.
