Exploring creative pedagogies for research methods: Reflections from a workshop series

“…The tasks in these briefs were meant to introduce the students to multimodal and multisensory methodological approaches that reach beyond verbal language to seek close-up knowledge through multiple meaning-making activities. These techniques and methods have been explored in interdisciplinary research that includes sound (Gallagher and Prior, 2014; Hall et al, 2008; Pedersen and Vilmar, 2021), smell (Henshaw, 2014), embodied emplacement (Vacchelli, 2018) and interactions with things (Woodward, 2020).
