- on setting research questions you can set multiple progressive questions on a topic
- eg show there is a bias, what is the bias, how can we address it (interventions? technologically? socially? policy?)
- you can propose new language, new practises, new methodologies as a result of your research
- at doctoral level you are claiming the knowledge and expertise, new original ‘contribution’
- learning the process of doing something about it, not just abstract analysis - symbiosis of theory and practise
- slow labour of constructing and deconstructing your methodologies
- scope is important, research context for the problem
- if you have an answer its probably not the right research question
- ‘participating’ - are they setting the agenda/benefitting etc, beyond tokenistic
- question everything. is it an assumption? no unsubstantiated claims
- selecting and simplifying problem space to reduce complexity, scope and purpose, making tractable problems from intractable ones
- this is how i break down the space of what I’m interested in, and combine with others, multiple models and frameworks
- model of vs model for
- practise-led or practise-based
- practise-led uses practise along the way but the practise isn’t the final contribution in the way it is in practise-based research
- history of the problem space
- how the problems are evolving in design and use
- understanding claims and assumptions and multiple scholars’ and disciplines’ perspectives
