Pushing Methodological Boundaries and Performing Curriculum Studies Dissertation Writing

Mon, April 16, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Millennium Broadway New York Times Square, Floor: Fourth Floor, Room 4.11

Session Type: Demonstration/Performance

Abstract

In this demonstration/performance session, a group of multiethnic curriculum inquirers explore creative ways to push methodological boundaries and liberate dissertation writing by diving into life and writing into contradiction in schools, families, and communities in the U. S. South. Through visual, graphic, and multimedia presentations, reader’s theater, drama, slave narrative, freedom songs, poems, and spoken word, the presenters will illustrate diverse forms of curriculum studies dissertation research and representations such as critical race geographical narrative inquiry, slave narrative, auto/biographical inquiry, critical ethnographic inquiry, critical aesthetic inquiry, portraiture, memoir, fiction, oral history, documentary film, painting, and poetry. Innovative writings engendered from the inquiries will be also demonstrated. The potentials, challenges, and future directions of various inquiries and representations are also discussed.
