Innovation in research methods brings new ethical dilemmas. Research ethics committees can struggle to support researchers at the methodological frontiers. This afternoon event includes four expert speakers working with mobile methods, internet-based research, arts-based research and place-based research.
Ethics in Practice in Innovative Methods - SRA Summer Event
Thursday 21 June 2.00-5.00pm
Local Government Association (LGA), 18 Smith Square, London SW1P 3HZ
Ethics and walking/ mobile methods
Maggie O’Neill, University of York There is increasing emphasis on methodologies at the boundaries of the arts and social sciences. From her long experience of using walking as an arts based method for biographical and/or participatory research, Maggie will consider the ethics and ethical implications.
Internet-based research
Callum Staff, Government Social Media Research Group User-generated content on the internet, and new types of research that come with it, bring a new set of ethical challenges. Callum will examine how traditional ethical principles cope with this challenge, and provide practical examples of issues encountered and handled.
Arts-based research
Dawn Mannay, Cardiff University Arts-based, visual and creative methods can be effective and ethical research tools. Dawn will explore how participants’ experiences and feelings can be translated into graphic art, music and film to reframe and ethically re-represent their accounts in engaging and accessible formats.
No parachutes allowed: ethics and place-based research
Louise Sheridan, Youth/Community Work, Glasgow Much can be learned through place-based research. Louise explores how community voices can and should be incorporated throughout the research process. Place-based research should enable communities to shape research, tell their stories and create their own histories.
Event chair: Leila Baker, Institute for Voluntary Action Research
