What do all researchers have in common? They are expert observers. Their work involves attuning and developing their skills of observation, sharpening their senses. Observation is a skill that is central to any successful fieldwork and yet it often gets taken for granted and not given specific attention. This workshop (2 sessions) builds on the observation (ethnographic) method the students have been introduced to and attends to train (all) their senses to help them become better observers. Learning objectives: This workshop aims to help the students engage critically with how to train their senses to experience/ perceive more fully and collect information relevant to their projects. It will train them to describe and communicate sensory information clearly and precisely and understand how to analyse it using various (inter)disciplinary protocols. After this workshop the students will understand the importance of sensory data in research and are able to collect and use it to think about their own topic and feed their research process.
