Its fragmented storyline circles the changing subject positions and voices of an 'I' who has been transgressing the boundaries of discrete gender and academic disciplines while producing an autobiography of voice. The paper combines self-narration and creative writing with a critical inquiry into medico-scientific normativity and deconstructive accounts of notions of 'subject', 'speaking', 'listening' and 'writing'. The traditional understanding of the human voice as an instrument that 'reveals essential clues about who we are' (Karpf, 2006) is destabilised, its ethical issues are disclosed and it is replaced with a notion of a 'plurivocality' that cannot be mastered (Derrida in McDonald, 1985).","PeriodicalId":177585,"journal":{"name":"Creative Approaches To Research","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121317701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hay, Yongyang Wang","doi":"10.3316/CAR0202021","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3316/CAR0202021","url":null,"abstract":"This article was stimulated by an opportunity to introduce the authors' intercultural research - to 'narrate' it - for an international conference and respond to the open-ended and highly creative theme of 'speaking cross-culturally'. We have tried to address this topic in the spirit intended, both as a creative application of narrative theory and as a form of narrative in itself - a genre of 'crosscultural speaking' exemplifying many discourses, from traditional storytelling to social semiotics and research writing. Our focus is on the potential of literature for 'intercultural' teaching of Chinese language and culture to senior secondary and tertiary students of diverse backgrounds in Australia. We begin by discussing literature in English about China and proceed to the implications for diagnostic research in intercultural pedagogy.","PeriodicalId":177585,"journal":{"name":"Creative Approaches To Research","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115222528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I draw links between my own learning during the ten years I worked on my own PhD thesis with the responsibility of being a supervisor for eight PhD students and include a new conceptualisation of the pedagogy of supervision. Five ethnographic operas developed by my undergraduate students between 2000 and 2005 are also discussed towards the 'playing it safe' culture. Finally the problematic issue of government consultancies in the work of scholars is raised and the ethical dilemmas involved for scholars have been illuminated through a cautionary tale.","PeriodicalId":177585,"journal":{"name":"Creative Approaches To Research","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121947016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Symbolic Self-curation: A Reflexive Activity for Practice, Life and Scholarship","authors":"N. Cherry","doi":"10.3316/CAR0101019","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3316/CAR0101019","url":null,"abstract":"This article explores symbolic self-curation as reflection, and its application in professional practice and research into professional practice. Symbolic self-curation is framed as a way of developing praxis fit for complexity, inspired by Sch n's (1987) rendering of practice as artistry; Bleakley's (1999) holistic reflexivity; Higgs and Tichen's (2001) exploration of professional practice development as knowing, doing, being and becoming; and van Schaik's (2005) development of self-curation as pedagogy and research. Despite the announcement of Denzin and Lincoln's (2000) 'seventh moment' in research, the status of research that investigates issues of professional practice in situ remains ambivalent in universities (McWilliam 2004). Candidates who bring significant practice issues into the research space are often asked to simplify their research questions and create texts that are verbal, linear and limited in their capacity to represent and explore their lived experience of complex practice. Many researchers are taking up the challenge, however, of developing new texts that can hold the complexity of professional and life practice (O'Neill 2002). Symbolic self-curation is a form of reflexive practice intended to add to those efforts. Its key elements are the gathering and arrangement of 'apt', often non-verbal symbols to represent our 'not-knowing' as well as our 'knowing'; creating for those involved new experiences of respectful and robust dialogue with others (in person and through literature); testing of the insights gained by immersion in action of some kind; and construction of an exegesis. Self-curation not only involves the self-curating practice but eventually the curation of the self as practitioner, encouraging a 'gathering' of the self and meta-reflection on that self in ways that are reflexive. This article also offers a theoretical analysis of the elements of self-curation, which might have the further value of explaining what is going on more generally when alternative texts and sites are employed in research. It is hoped that it will be useful to other scholars who are seeking to describe, explain, and 'justify' their use of alternative texts.","PeriodicalId":177585,"journal":{"name":"Creative Approaches To Research","volume":"22 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129573810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our attempts to know and help may need to be rethought, particularly when we write into fields of trauma. The methodological, epistemological, and ethical underpinnings of current practices are troubled, as well as the limits of reflexivity and the notion of 'the talking cure'. David Mamet's discussion of the nature and purpose of drama frames this performative exploration of the promise and limits of arts-based research, and the generative potential of tragedy as a post-modern way to produce knowledge about unspeakable losses.","PeriodicalId":177585,"journal":{"name":"Creative Approaches To Research","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132997649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
