Using Photo-Methods to Empower Participants in Education Research: Creating Knowledge and Change
Abstract
The use of photographs in ethnographic education research promises new insights and challenges to researchers who wish to do good science and good work in the communities under examination. The use of photo-elicitation is discussed as a method that can help alleviate what Foucault described as the analytical “gaze,” allowing for discussions of difficult or taboo subjects like race, sex, gender, and dis/ability. The history, uses, and techniques are examined for different photo methods including photo-elicitation, photo-elicitation interviews, and photovoice. This chapter also contributes practical suggestions for using photos in ethnographic research and illuminates new research in the field. Using photos in the reviewed studies achieved positive results for participants and revealed new understandings of communities, culture, and individuals.
