Check out "A Layering of Selves: Bias, Subjectivity, and Paper Dolls," a more #creative and #fun way for #qualitative #students to explore #subjectivity, #positionality, & #bias. FREE access: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... #highered #research #PhDSky #AcademicSky #HigherEdSky #methodology

Figure 1. Stephanie’s (Left) and April’s (Right) Paper Dolls From Initial Play.

This paper examines the ways that artful inquiry affords qualitative research students
newly creative and embodied opportunities to understand and engage with subjectivity
and bias—important concepts in the eld of qualitative inquiry. Moving beyond the
inadequacy of traditional teaching practices, such as student-generated written sub-
jectivity statements, we share here an artful methodological approach using paper dolls
to disrupt conventional engagements with these concepts. Inspired by Donna
Haraway’s emphasis on layer(ing)s of subjectivity and Karen Barad’s discussion of
cutting together-apart as a creative process, we draw from collaging in/as research to
offer this paper doll activity as a constructive and disruptive way to invite students to
consider themselves as complex, messy, and inevitable aspects of the research process.
