INSIGHTS Talks: Karen Rennie - A creative activity to help students explore research methodologies Online
In this session, KAren will share a new and creative way to help students to explore their philosophical underpinnings for their research project, at any level. This active learning method, underpinned by social constructivism and critical creativity theory, aims to use creativity and imagination to support students to learn together and construct their own understanding of what paradigm they may use to approach their research project. In this session, Karen will offer ways to encourage students to critically and creatively think about complex philosophical ideas that will underpin research within their field.
