LEARNING OUTCOMES
Students will be able to analyse, compare and discuss views on artistic, arts-based and other types of practice-based research possibilities. Students will be able to bind the theories from literature together with the practices from the explored examples and benefit them in their own research projects. Students will have the capacity to critically analyse the possibilities and limitations of the explored methods. Students will form a clear image of artistic, arts-based and practice-based research and contemplate their possibilities for own research.

CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
valid for whole curriculum period:
The course explores contemporary practices on artistic and arts-based research, setting the students own research projects as starting points. In this course, we investigate what kind of knowledge can artistic practice bring into research, and how might the participants' ongoing doctoral work benefit from this knowledge. We explore the different historical backgrounds, and contemporary discourses around artistic, arts-based and practice-based research, also engaging with their critique. The examples come from international academic and arts publications, and transdisciplinary publications from other fields than arts, and through the many visitors of the class.

Active participation on reading reflections and other discussion and the final paper.
