On a verbal-visual continuum: Approaches to data collection and analysis
Organised by Sandie Mourão, Ana Leão and Catarina Castro
13 July 2022
The 5th Advanced Research Seminar looks specifically at the variety and range of approaches to data collection and analysis associated with research in the Social Sciences and Humanities. With two keynotes that delineate the ends of a verbal-visual continuum, Chrysi Rapanta (IFILNova) opened the seminar with an interdisciplinary look at discourse analysis and Silvia Melo Pfeifer (University of Hamburg) closed the day with a colourful overview of visual analysis. The aim of this seminar is to provide a space for PhD students to present their work in progress with a focus on their approaches to data collection and analysis – along the continuum. Papers shared and discussed the reasons for methodological choices, the tools discovered, the challenges and triumphs encountered, the results that are emerging and the inevitable questions that ensue.
