@simplyemmanuela I know @annafitzhayes is planning to do some research in this area sometime in the future. She will definitely be one that I will be watching and learning from
@EzinneOfoegbu A5: I think a lot of my questions just revolve around the ethics and practicality of a study in this venue. There's a lot of unknowns and despite all the reading thus far, I need to do a lot more learning! #visualresearchmethods
@simplyemmanuela I think it would depend on where you were gathering the information. If it's a public platform or a public account such as Instagram or Flickr, I think the lines of ethics are a little blurry. I haven't found a clear answer anywhere so far
@Heather89358317@EzinneOfoegbu That's interesting. I was also curious about the IRB process too. It's already difficult to get IRB for projects just due to control of collected data, and since the data could be online for all to see, keeping anything private may cause conflict
@EzinneOfoegbu Teena Coat - phd student at ncsu, student of #visualresearchmethods. Looking forward to any insights and experience anyone could bring to this process of using social media as data in a study
Join #VisualResearchMethods for a twitter chat next Thursday 11/22 at 1pm for how to use visual research methods to explore technology, digital images, and social media. Here are some reading resources: https://t.co/ReOZZpTs6E
