Abstract
During the summer semester of 2015, our group of four graduate students participated in a visual research methodologies course organized by the Faculty of Education at the University of British Columbia (UBC). The class was led by Dr. Claudia Mitchell, a visiting scholar from McGill University (hereafter referred to as Claudia), and consisted of fourteen graduate students who met daily for a total of fourteen sessions.
