PRS Asia Workshop: Teaching as Research - Sharing your Practice

Autoethnography is a methodology that combines personal narrative (auto) with cultural analysis (ethnography) using creative methods. This workshop uses autoethnography as a foundation upon which participants will be invited to begin or progress a full academic article/chapter.

Autoethnography is now a widely used interdisciplinary approach in academic publishing and is an accessible way for teacher/researchers to turn your own teaching and/or research practice in order to share your lived experience and everyday inter/disciplinary expertise into publishable outputs.

This workshop builds upon the Part 1 workshop at March PRS, in which participants began working through a practical essay template. In this Part 2 workshop, we will together move through additional sections of the template to advance attendees’ work toward full article/chapter.

Both new and return participants are encouraged to attend, and we will start where you are. To close, we will invite all participants to express interest in contributing your work to a co-edited book explicitly out of RMIT Vietnam, and discuss requirements for your consideration.

The workshop is facilitated by leading autoethnographer and creativity scholar Professor Daniel X. Harris (they/them), School of Education, RMIT University Melbourne. Dan has published 22 books and over 150 articles and book chapters, many using autoethnography and creative practice. They are the founder and director of the Creative Agency research lab www.creativeresearchhub.com, and the convenor of the international Creative Education Futures Consortium.
