Williamson, Sarah (2017) Witness / Eyewitness: Exploring the transformative potential of photography to develop an inclusive view of the world and society. In: SCUTREA 2017, 4-6th July 2017, Edinburgh University.
Abstract

This paper describes a small-scale qualitative research study exploring the use of the arts, particularly photography, and its potential to develop greater awareness of the world and current affairs in adults preparing to work as educators in the lifelong learning sector. The research is part of a wider study into the use of the arts in professional education, and the extent to which they can have a transformative impact. This particular project using photography has been part of an initiative to develop reflective and critical thinking about the world and society, and a commitment to the values of inclusion, equality and diversity.
