Abstract
This article discusses using cue cards, also known as flashcards, and metaphorical cards to prompt and enhance conversations on the implications of domestic practices and energy demand. This cue card methodology has a long pedigree in qualitative sociological and cultural studies research. We discuss the challenges and benefits of cue card methodology in geographical research. To do this, we share our insights from applying cue cards within a mixed-method study conducted on domestic energy practices in relation to aging well at home. The study focused on individuals aged over 60, living in the Illawarra, New South Wales, Australia. We conclude that when mindful of potential constraints, cue card conversations can effectively assist participants reflect on domestic practices and energy demand.
