Participatory Provotyping
This is a cross post from my MSc Student blog which we use to chart our progress through our final projects.
In what ways might participatory provotyping help young people articulate preferred educational futures with particular reference to the future of qualifications in Scotland?
While it's a clunky question, it is a first step on the way to my research question. Looking back over my blog posts it's starting to get at the issues I want to explore namely:
- Using participatory speculative methods with children and young people in order to help them articulate education futures
- Creating tangible diegetic works alongside children and young people
- Using outputs from these methods to inform policy
- A grounding in a live educational policy issue within Scotland
What remains in terms of fleshing out my project is the specific area of focus. Is this a project about critically examining participatory provotyping as a methodology or am I more interested in exploring the outputs as they relate to the future of Scottish qualifications?
