Abstracts

EN

The article looks at part of the author’s journey in considering a suitable research method for the research question: how participants and audience involved in happening interpret the experience and how, if in any way, their interpretations place happening within an educational discourse. In recounting this journey the author briefly outlines his interest in the research area, as well as some general considerations concerning choice of method, including epistemology. The article shall also include a description of a method the author has rejected, ethnodrama, and the reasons for its rejection. The description of an adapted form of action research, a method the author is currently considering, shall also be given. The author concludes by stating some of the issues arising from his adaptation of the action research, including choices between objective and reflexive video making practices and how data should be recorded during focused interview.
