Students will learn how research questions and methods as themselves &#8216;designed&#8217; in the ways that they are positioned to frame problems, collect and share evidence and claim their validity, and shape arguments in response to theoretical and practical problems. This will faciliate the understanding of theory and practice as deeply intertwined, entangled in social and cultural ideals and values while rejecting a relativistic standpoint that renders all knowledge claims as equally valid. The course will include discussions, guest speakers, viewing, and workshops to examine various methodological strategies and their tactics in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>LEARNING OBJECTIVES<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Understanding the philosophic foundations of digital media design and research methodologies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Engaging critically and creatively with design and research methods by tracing their history, unpacking their politics, and critically engaging their epistemic validity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Employing theories presented in this course to identify\/frame problems and choose methodologies that are best suited to address them<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>CLASS ETHOS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I strive to create an open and inclusive learning environment built upon feminist ethos of curiosity, generosity, humility, and respect coupled with practices of listening, experimentation, and collaboration. I will explain the details of this on the first day of classes and look forward to your particular ways of following, extending, and amending the above by expressing what they might entail in your words and actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>READINGS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Required<\/strong><\/em><br>Booth, Wayne C., Gregory G.

Rather, the aim is for you to begin your research trajectory by learning about the plurality of epistemic approaches: What are the possible ways to approach your research interest? How can you write a proposal and identify meaningful ways to craft hypotheses and collect evidence? What do these choices imply for the communities of knowledg that you engage with and the kinds of impact you can make? The good news is, however, that leearning to answer the above questions, alongside many excercises and foundations we learn, are applicable to your preparation for quals inclusive of learning how to read, how to think through similarities and differnces ways of knowing and writing, and how to frame and communicate your own response to authors and readings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Course Schedule<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading courseParts\"><strong>PART I.
