CONTEXTUAL STUDIES SOUNDBITES FROM TUTOR LED HANGOUTS

L3 Study group with Ariadne Xenou 31/5/22

How does the literature review relate to the dissertation?

  • Articulation of process
  • Reflections are important
  • A snapshot of the discourse
  • In depth summary of no more than 20 sources
  • Not going too far down  a road, the dissertation is for detail.
  • Question anything no longer relevant when you write your dissertation

Writing:

  • Articulating means we own it & articulation is discovery
  • The importance of resources will change as we write- flexibility is important
  • Dissertation for balance can put the research method/ methodology at the beginning, but only what the reader needs to know.
  • Footnotes for not required but interesting

Audiences: Tutor- Academics/peers/other photographers -Authors of the sources – imagine internal dialogues with them

L3 Study group 26/9/22 – lost notes!

L3 Study group 31/10/22

We discussed how to mesh BOW and CS. I explained that I find it difficult to work on them both concurrently however They are both in my minds when working practically on either. My BOW is an exploration of ideas that I have arrived at through my CS study, research and writing, whilst my CS is fed by my photographic exploration of CS methodologies.

Ariadne pointed out that they don’t need to mirror each other , they contextualise and offer support to each other. But they should stand on their own.
