SpringerBriefs in Education Participatory Video in Adult Education - Kyung-Hwa Yang Kartoniert (TB)

This book highlights participatory video as an instrument for community-based adult education and focuses in particular on the role that it can play in promoting participatory culture among adult learners. In brief participatory video refers to participant-centered video making. Today participant-generated videos can travel farther and faster than ever before and thus the perspectives represented can be effectively shared by a large number of people. Participatory video can also offer those involved an opportunity to address issues that matter to them and give voice to their experiences. T he author explores this potential based on her experience working with adult learners in a metropolitan community and addresses participatory video in both theory and practice. The target readership is adult educators but it will also be helpful to researchers who have a particular interest in incorporating video into their community-based work.
