This document provides a literature review on cultural differences and their impact on individual, team, and organizational performance. It discusses several prominent models for measuring cultural dimensions, including those proposed by Edward Hall, Kluckhohn, Hofstede, and Trompenaars. Hofstede's model of cultural dimensions is examined in more depth, outlining the six dimensions of power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism versus collectivism, masculinity versus femininity, long-term versus short-term orientation, and indulgence versus restraint. The document also discusses the Lewis model of linear-active, multi-active, and reactive cultural behaviors and how they manifest geographically.
This document discusses reflexivity and culture. It defines reflexivity as the ability to consider oneself in relation to social contexts. Reflexivity occurs through internal conversations where people deliberate on their circumstances and decide on courses of action. Culture mediates between objective structures and subjective agency. The author aims to develop a theoretical framework showing how reflexivity relates to sociocultural interactions and cultural systems. Their PhD research longitudinally studies reflexivity and culture in university students to iteratively develop this theory in dialogue with empirical data.

Facilitating learning by enabling young unemployed people to visually reflect their vocational and educational biography in different European countries
This document outlines a proposed diversity inquiry program called DIVINQ that aims to develop leadership qualities and sensitivity to diversity. It would involve a small group of year 13 students meeting regularly over three terms to engage in facilitated philosophical discussions about gender, sexuality, and disability. The program is grounded in research showing these students often experience bullying and aims to challenge assumptions about diversity through respectful questioning rather than problem-focused approaches. It draws on theories of social constructionism, postmodernism, and narrative therapy to explore identity as non-fixed and examine how power structures can marginalize. The goals are to help students feel more comfortable with difference and treat all people with dignity.

This document discusses cultural intelligence (CQ) and how virtual worlds may help foster it. It provides background on CQ, defining it as an individual's ability to function effectively in culturally diverse situations. Virtual worlds are proposed to enhance CQ through immersive cultural content and interactions between avatars. The document also summarizes a study on the Dream It. Do It initiative, finding some evidence it increased youths' motivational and metacognitive CQ through international teamwork. However, future research is needed that directly measures CQ changes and emphasizes experiential learning.
Introduction to-narrative inquiry-workshop_2012Esko Johnson
Here is a draft of part one of your story as a music student:
I have always had a passion for music from a young age. I started playing the piano when I was 7 years old. My piano teacher, Ms. Smith, had a huge impact on me and is the reason I fell in love with music. She brought so much joy and enthusiasm to our lessons. I have fond memories of practicing for hours to prepare for my annual recitals.
In high school, I joined the choir and began singing lessons. I discovered I had an alto voice range that I really enjoyed using. Our choir director, Mr. Jones, challenged us to strive for excellence. Performing in concerts and competitions helped build my confidence on stage

This document describes a digital storytelling training course in Copenhagen from November 2015. It provides an overview of the course content including topics like microstorytelling, digital story components, the storytelling process, and examples of past projects using digital storytelling for topics like human rights, community building, and intergenerational sharing of life stories. The training is led by experienced facilitators and aims to teach digital storytelling skills and their applications for knowledge sharing, communication, and empowerment.
The use of sensory ethnography to gain new understandings of visitor emotional experiences and practices at National Trust sites and their implications for future research & management.
Aims:
investigate the meaning places have for people and how people engage with places
open up new approaches to examining peoples’ engagement with landscapes and places through sensory ethnography
communicate the above in a meaningful way that enables the NT to evaluate the possibility of implementing the findings and the methods.
Digital storytelling is an effective method for inspiring social change and empowerment through creating human connections. It involves combining a short first-person script of 350-400 words with images, music, and voiceover of 2-3 minutes to tell a personal story. The document outlines the value of digital storytelling, including introducing new topics and engaging people. It then discusses the Copenhagen Center for Digital Storytelling, which has run workshops internationally since 2007 on topics like education, health, advocacy, and community building. Research projects involving digital storytelling are also mentioned.
This document summarizes a meeting about creating an exhibition called "Lost Childhoods" that ignites community action around foster youth. It outlines the project timeline and defines the key elements of stories, objects, art, design, programs and labels. The group discusses what visitors will understand, feel and do through experiencing the exhibition. Visitors will understand the authentic experience of foster care from a youth's perspective, feel empowered to take action, have an emotional experience that sparks empathy, and understand that the project is foster youth-driven and welcoming. The document then introduces the artists involved in the project.
The document discusses three research projects that used methodology to analyze what is not directly said in interviews. The researchers hypothesized that answers may lie outside of conscious knowledge and aimed to have a relational process where the researcher is also a participant. Psychoanalytic ideas and narrative theory were used to analyze interviews on multiple levels, looking beyond what was said to subjects' constructions of self and stories. The women in STEM project found complex family relationships important. The youth connectedness project found secure attachments and achievement provide scaffolding for development, though some rely on little support. The research itself created new connections for some youth.
Information experience design: activating information research in practiceKate Davis
This document provides an overview of an information experience design (IXD) workshop held by Dr. Elham Sayyad Abdi and Dr. Kate Davis.

In the morning, participants learned about key concepts in IX research including information behavior, practice, and literacy. They discussed definitions of information and participated in an activity to understand different forms of information. In the afternoon, participants continued an IXD activity and discussed applying IXD concepts to their own contexts. The workshop aimed to provide tools and approaches for understanding people's experiences with information in various contexts.
A New Twist Fostering Creative Career Exploration In Young PeopleKelly Lipiec
This document summarizes a paper presented at the 2003 National Consultation on Career Development conference in Ottawa, Canada. The paper discusses using case studies and experiential learning to foster creative career exploration in young people. It describes how case studies can engage youth by connecting emotionally and stimulating curiosity. The paper also outlines Kolb's experiential learning model and how its four phases of concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation can provide a framework for career counseling using case studies. Case studies are suggested to promote brainstorming of possibilities and encourage youth to actively participate in their learning.
The document summarizes key findings from an ethnographic study on youth innovation in Skåne, Sweden. It finds that innovation stems from people, and the government's role is to provide tools to help new generations innovate. The study explored the creative practices of youth in Skåne to gain insights that could enhance their innovative spirit. Innovation is a social phenomenon that requires communication, motivation from emotional experiences and self-expression, and scaffolding from mentors to bridge gaps between current abilities and goals. The report provides recommendations on how to better support an environment friendly to youth innovation.

VTS involves having students look at an image and answer open-ended questions to develop observation skills, make inferences, and consider multiple perspectives. The presentation explains how VTS furthers the goals of information literacy by developing critical thinking. Examples of using VTS with artworks are provided, as well as research showing its effectiveness beyond art. The presentation concludes with a call for questions.
Using story exchange to build shared understandings of identity, positionalit...Anita Zijdemans Boudreau
This document summarizes research on using story exchanges to build understanding of identity, positionality, and intersectionality. It discusses two protocols tested: 1) interviews where participants profiled "Others" and reflected on positionality; and 2) workshops where participants shared stories in groups. Findings showed interviews had deeper impact on awareness than workshops. Workshops helped build empathy but some felt guilt about their own stories or unable to process concepts due to time. Future work should focus on moving participants from empathy to action and addressing challenges like guilt or resistance to concepts.

Fernando Hernández-Hernández,
Juana Maria Sancho & Rachel Fendler
University of Barcelona
European Conference on Educational Research
Network: 02. Vocational Education and Training (VETNET)
3. Digital biographical narratives
• Story telling.
• Digital Vocational Narratives
• Digital Vocational Biographies.
• Vocational Biography Design.
• Visual Biographical Narratives.
• (…)
4. • Images (photographs and
visual documents) youth
produce, exemplify
diverse strategies for
documenting their lives
experiencies and capture
some this multi-faceted
manner of seeing,
representing, reflecting
and interpreting.
(Hernández-Hernández,
2013; Abakerli Baptista,
2014).
Irene Jerez
5. A visual narrative
accounts many
different stories at the
same time as they mix
and match multiple
images.
(Denzin & Lincoln, 2000)
6. The basic features of a visual narrative are: composition
(available elements), the presence of a story, the characters, the
techniques of representation and the means in which it is
shared. (Pimenta & Poovaiah, 2010).
7. VNs can be expressed using moving images or a fixed
image and in recent times with an advancement of
technology a combination of both. (Pimenta & Poovaiah,
2010).
8. Research from a visual narrative is an intentional, thoughtful
and, active process in which researchers and participants
explore and make sense of their experiences, both visually
and narratively. (Hedy Bach, 2007: 281)
10. • Merleau-Ponty (1962) conceived research as
an enactive space of living inquiry.
• In a/r/tography, “living inquiry is an aesthetic
encounter, where the process of meaning
making and being are inextricably connected
to an awareness and understanding of art”
(Springgay, Irwin, & Kind, 2005: 902).
11. • Living inquiry ties to action research.
• An effective framework for opening-up
research beyond the academy, by
acknowledging that everyone is an expert of
her/his own lived experience.
12. • “Show your Own Gold” is offering to the
youth the opportunity of being engage in a
living inquiry experience as “an embodied
encounter constituted through visual and
textual understandings and experiences rather
than mere visual and textual representations”
(Springgay, Irwin, & Kind, 2005: 902).
13. • It describes the process through which we
may adopt “an attitude of inquiry” (Marshall
& Reason, 2008, p. 61) towards our lives, or in
this case, youth biographical trajectories.
14. • Living inquiry is a framework that allowed us
to respond to the challenge of finding ways to
bring the youth experiences into a broader,
ongoing conversation.
• Our aim is build out from practice,
contextualizing young people’s experiences so
that they may interact with other
contributions within VAT research.
15. • ... ways of behaving which encourage [us] to
treat little as fixed, finished, clear-cut... living
continually in process, adjusting, seeing what
emerges, bringing things into question...
attempting to open to continually question
what [we] know, feel, do and want, and
finding ways to engage actively in this
questioning and process its stages. (Judi
Marshall, 1999: pp. 156–157)
16. • Living inquiry provides a space for young
people to openly explore and begin to
understand their own relationship with the
world and, in doing so, conceivably push back
the notion that they are always already
determined and fated by it (Meyer, 2010, p.
88).
17. • We are able to offer youth the possibility of
visualizing their biographical experiences and
reflecting on new personal and professional
alternatives for their vocational trajectories.
• This means that the process promoting by this
project could promote “a disruption of
established ways of knowing, through learning
events” (Atkinson, 2012: 10).
20. • Joanne Rappaport (2008) reminds us that
when carrying out collaborative
ethnographies, “what happens in the field is
much more than data collection” (p. 7). Our
experience testifies to this. Our open-ended
research proposal allowed each of the five
research groups to embark on reflexive
qualitative research (Denzin & Lincoln, 2005),
investing in processes of “living, relating and
working through questioning and reflexivity”
21. • We invite young people to participate not as
informants but as researchers who use their
own experience to contribute to the project.
young people contributed with their
knowledge-in-practice.
• to develop knowledge-of-practice, and expand
our understanding of youth living experiences
(Marilyn Cochran-Smith and Susan Lytle,
2001),
22. • Living inquiry recognizes that research is not
merely a means to an end, placing value on
the journey and on the transition inquirers
(and the inquiry itself) go though between the
start and the finish. From this perspective, the
group dynamic becomes a focal point to our
process.
23. • Living inquiry encourages us to ask questions
and critique what we know.
• Adopting an inquiring attitude reconfigures
our identity as learners, pushing us into the
active role of producer (researcher).
• The relational space of our collaborative
project is the context where this
transformation could take place.
