COP Lecture 1; Research & Epistemology

NOTES

- Take ownership of your own practice
- Learning through doing; don't just learn through reading; experiential learning
- Research can be a varied number of things
- Context is everything, research as a process! Step into the unknown
- Creative practice, uncovering new things, exploration, experimentation
-Failure is okay! Embrace it!


- Stimulated approach to ideas flowing, get inspired, see things, react to them
-Systematic approach; take what you've found and systematically modify it
-Intuitive approach; previous experiences, thought process, internalised perceptions
- All three work together cycically 

- Books, journals, internet, films, documentaries, experiments, testing things, talking to people
- How? Why? What if? Ask questions

-Primary research; something you are generating
- Secondary research; already exists
-Quantitive research; facts, figures, measurements
- Qualitative research; things that can't be measured

- Don't wait around; JUST START IT!
