A Mother's Place: Case Study in Interdisciplinary Research Methods

Would you like to learn more about bringing a variety of methods together from different disciplines and how to implement these in a research project?

Would you like to understand more about how interdisciplinary research teams can find a middle ground and approach research that draws on a broad range of skills?

This workshop will provide in depth interdisciplinary training inspired by a seed-funded research project called 'A Mother’s Place'. The research team span 4 difference fields of research practice across two academic schools within University of the West of Scotland: ‘Health and Life Sciences’ and ‘Business and Creative Industries’.

In this workshop you will learn how to:

- Use a simple drum circle as an ice-breaker for a focus group

- Use photo elicitation within individual and group participant research

- Interface materials with NVivo

- Consider the possible connections of your research area with Appreciative Inquiry as a methodology
