At TQR2014, we will be exploring the artistry of qualitative research as a craft and the crafting of artful qualitative research. We are interested in hearing stories of the aesthetics, poetics, pragmatics, and ethics of qualitative inquiry as a creative, performative act produced through our honed skills and hard work, as well as tales how educators, supervisors, and mentors facilitate and support learning qualitative research craft. We want to learn how qualitative researchers draw upon the arts, humanities, sciences, and professions to conceptualize and to realize their work as art. We are especially intrigued to see presenters sharing innovations in visualization and presentation. Coinciding with our newest TQR feature, "Research Rookies," we particularly want to hear from students and researchers new to qualitative research making their first discoveries about their craft and themselves. We also want experienced researchers sharing their "origin" stories as well as accounts of experienced researchers experiencing something new in their evolving research work. To help us celebrate Qualitative Research Artistry and Craft we encourage prospective presenters to submit their paper and paper panel proposals that will inspire conference attendees to consider qualitative researchers' creativity in all forms and variations. In addition we are very attracted to presentations on the application of new technologies in the practice and performance of qualitative research. As always, we are also open to receiving creative presentation forms and content. We will be accepting submissions from February 1 to April 30, 2013. Over the next few weeks we will share more details about TQR2014 on this web site. As always, please let us know your questions and comments by sending us your emails to tqr@nova.edu, by posting to our Facebook page, or by tweeting #TQR2014 to help create buzz about the conference. | |
