Course content
|
Lecturers from academia and practice (Mgr. et Mgr. Michaela Antonín Malaníková, Ph.D.; Gökhan Bacik, Ph.D.; Mgr. Elizabeth Allyn Woock, PhD.; Ph.D., Mgr. Vladislava Závrská) present selected methodological approaches in history, art studies, political science, and sociology. The unit on the methodology of history as an academic discipline will focus on working with sources and the challenges of historical interpretation, in addition to concrete research methods. The unit on sociology will focus on the basic methodology of quantitative and qualitative analysis. Arts-based research methodology introduces the possibilities of arts-based (or 'creative') research methodology, and the spectrum of research methods also includes the unit on methodology in political science, which includes post-structuralist methods.
