Adolescent perspectives on coping are often explored through quantitative methods within a problem-focused paradigm. To better understand how urban adolescents define, perceive, and experience coping, this research used photovoice, a qualitative research method that employs co-creation of meaning and knowledge around photographic images. Twelve adolescents in the 9th-11th grades at a Baltimore City High School photographed images representing coping. They participated in focus groups to discuss how their pictures reflected coping and its relationship to decision-making, development, and academic success. Participants identified different types of coping, as well as strategies and resources in their homes, school, and community. They classified coping as ''good'' or ''bad,'' depending on its impact on themselves and others. They described how coping evolves and noted long-term consequences of different coping strategies, suggesting a future-oriented aspect to their understanding of the concept. Students presented these findings to key stakeholders including a congressional representative, the Baltimore City School Board, community members, and their peers. Study findings elucidate the importance of adolescent perspectives to the coping research literature. Moreover, findings can inform the development of school and community-based programs designed to foster coping among urban adolescents.

“…Their concerns may reach policy-makers through public forums and the display of their photographs. By using a camera to record their concerns and needs, it permits individuals who rarely have contact with those who make decisions over their lives, to make their voices heard (Wang 1999;Wang andBurris 1994, 1997;Wang et al 2004;Lopez et al 2005a, b;Castleden et al 2008;Rhodes et al 2008;Hergenrather et al 2009;Teti et al 2012;Sanon et al 2014;Switzer et al 2015;Maratos et al 2016;Rose et al 2016).…”

Innovative, or creative research, methods have become increasingly popular in the last few decades. In this chapter, I will include several salient issues on which chapters in the section on Innovative research methods in health social sciences can be situated. First, I discuss some ideas about innovative and creative methods. This is followed with the notion of those who practice innovative methods: the innovative researcher. I will then bring readers through a number of innovative and creative methods that researchers have adopted in their research. These include the theoretical lens, arts-based and visual research methods, the body and embodiment research, digital methods, and textual (plus visual) methods of inquiry. As an innovative researcher, our choice of innovative methods primarily depends on the questions we pose; the people who are involved; our moral, ethical, and methodological competence as researchers; and the sociocultural environment of

“…However, it may be argued that the sharing of these photographs (often with captions) is another way of involving participants in data analysis, given that they have some control over what gets shared. This was the case in a number HANNA 28 beijing international review of education 2 (2020) 11-34 of the studies, where a school-or community-based exhibition was set up (e.g., DeJaynes & Curmi-Hall, 2019;Rogers, 2017;Rose et al, 2016;Call-Cummings & Martinez, 2016;Kaplan et al, 2007;Mitchell et al, 2006). Nevertheless, it remains the case that the audience has the freedom to interpret the images on display in their own way, which may be entirely different from the intentions of the learner-photographers, and therefore may not promote the kind of 'counter storytelling' that scholars such as Goessling (2018) or Allen (2009) might wish for.…”

Photography as a Research Method with Learners in Compulsory Education: A Research Review

This article offers a review of thirty-one research articles from 2001–2019 on the use of photography as a research method with learners in compulsory education. Understood within the scope of ‘visual’, ‘participatory’ and ‘arts-based’ research methods, many scholars have linked the increased use of the photographic method to greater awareness of the rights of the child and changing understandings of children as full ‘human beings’ with agency rather than simply vulnerable ‘human becomings’. Nevertheless, photography is still a relatively under-utilised approach in research with learners in school-based compulsory education and its use is not widespread globally. Against the background of the history of visual and photographic methods in general and in education in particular, this article highlights two key themes in the empirical research literature: why the photographic method is used (dealing with representation, participation and emancipation); and how the photographic method and the photos themselves are used (pre-generated and participant-generated photographs). It closes with a reflection on what may be holding back its expansion, including key ethical concerns, and a proposal for encouraging its use in education.
