Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Contents
I will introduce the concept of „lifeworld“ as used in recent anthropological literature and will provide an overview of research methods especially suited for the study of children and young people (e.g. life story interviews, photo elicitation method, room touring and experience sampling method). We will also discuss topics such as family, friends and friendship, plays and games, informal and formal institutions of learning and teaching, work, politics, media and consumption which are all part of young people’s lifeworlds. Students will then form small teams and each group chooses a research focus of its own and collects empirical data in or around Vienna. In the seminar sessions we will present and discuss the milestones necessary for such a project: developing a research question and a project draft, contracting with research partners, applying the different research methods, analysing the empirical material, presenting the findings, linking them with relevant literature and writing up.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

The assessment of students' work is based on their participation in class as well as on their project draft and their final seminar paper.
