Learning outcomes
At the end of the workshop the student: - is able to move autonomously in applying the specific techniques learned independently or within projects organized by the institutions; - will know how to deal with other subjects on the methods of use and documentation of the techniques learned; - knows how to place the specific knowledge learned in different types of service; - will know how to evaluate the limits and merits of the technical instruments learned; - will know how to transfer the technologies learned in different contexts by making personal modifications and additions.
Course contents
The workshop provides the necessary tools to allow students to acquire some basic techniques of ethnographic research. through the discussion in the classroom - starting from some readings of ethnographic research - we will deal with issues of the contemporary world, in particular in the aspects inherent to the world of the prevention of discomfort and that of its management in educational terms. in a second moment, the students - collectively or individually - will experience a moment of "participant observation" in order to train themselves in the ethnographic gaze, capable of suggesting concrete possibilities of operative intervention in social distress.
