Action Research Intervention Post Seven : Reflections on Constraints, Ethics and Emerging Insights
1. The First Cycle In this post I’ll survey the first enacted cycle of my Action Research Project (ARP), by examining three think-aloud transcripts recorded from three intervention sessions and post-activity feedback collected via Microsoft Forms. To align with Action Research principals, reflection is being used here to interpret how the intervention worked in practice,…

Action Research Intervention Post Six : Anticipated Use, Accessibility & Evaluation Methods
1. Evaluation Strategy Although the intervention has not yet been enacted, this post outlines how it will be evaluated once implemented. In keeping with an Action Research approach, my evaluation strategy prioritises situated observation and participant experience, recognising that meaningful insights may emerge through active participation rather than abstract measurement alone (McNiff, 2013). I’ve therefore…

Action Research Intervention Post Five : Proposed Intervention Design – Hybrid Fine Art Studio Space Prototype (Pre-Intervention)
1. Act In this post I’ll cover the design for my proposed intervention. At this point the intervention has not yet been enacted, so I intend here to outline the outcomes of the planning, ethical review and technical survey stages of the research cycle. In terms of Action research, this represents the ‘Act’ phase as…

Action Research Intervention Post Four : Baseline Studio Infrastructure & Constraints
1. Studio Infrastructure Audit Before designing my intervention, I conducted an informal audit of the existing studio infrastructure in the Fine Art Computational Arts (FACA) Project Space A217, which was to be the delivery space for my prototype studio setup. The space is equipped with a theatrical lighting system (designed by Stage Electrics) that is…
