What’s of interest? River Journey Mapping: An Arts-Based Method for Exploring Educational Paths – BCcampus
More details (Unless otherwise noted, this description is copied directly from the tagged web site)
This blog post is part of a series that brings together reflections from the research study Navigating the Waters of Leadership Education in Indigenous Contexts, supported by the BCcampus Research Fellows Program. Across these posts, I explore three paths: River Journey Mapping, as an arts-based research approach; the Pedagogical Approaches Model; and the tensions that emerge when working within institutional structures. Whether we work with Indigenous communities or not, I hope that we can consider how teaching and learning can be more deeply connected to the land, relationships, and other ways of knowing.
How might creative expression and artistic practices enrich the way we conduct research?
The River Journey is a well known arts-based activity that invites participants to reflect on an experience over time. Through drawing, they identify different moments in their journey—such as beginnings, challenges, milestones, decisions, etc.—and represent them along the journey using the river images.
