“…For example, Phillipson and Forlin (2011) used visual imagery in teacher education as a strategy for gaining a greater understanding of diversity and inclusion and to challenge pre-service teachers' perspectives on the issue. There are nuances in this pedagogical use however, in some studies the visual expression/representation is the outcome of a reflective process, a form of image-based reflection (Phillipson and Forlin, 2011;Orland-Barak & Maskit, 2014), whereas in other studies the completed image acts as a catalyst in the reflective process. For example, in a study by Uner, Akkus and Turan, (2012) which explored pre-service teachers' images of science teachers in Turkey, they argue that inviting pre-service teachers to draw and subsequently analyse their drawings provides, 'an excellent chance for critical reflection, bringing the nuances into the light and emotions in people's views of teachers, as well as the historical, social, cultural, and personal stereotypes ' (p. 417).…”

“…The interpretation method of drawings applies cultural visual analysis, where the content analysis of the images is often practised (Bal 2009; Rose 2008). The analyses can be described as a holistic reading, including the cycles of interpretation (Orland‐Barak & Maskit 2013). The cultural visual analysis uses the concept of the image to refer to an idea or a mental representation.…”

The case study is a part of the research and art‐based developmental project Rinnalla (Side by Side) – Mentors of Arts‐ and Narrative‐based Approaches as a Support for Social‐Emotional Learning and Growth in Early Childhood Education, where arts and narrative‐based methods were used to support children’s social‐emotional growth in early childhood education. This research focuses on six‐year‐old children’s experiences of a fairy tale and music based on H.C. Andersen’s The Ugly Duckling. The research questions are: (1) How do children express the emotions they experience while listening to a fairy tale and music? (2) How do the children express and build their peer relationships through communication while drawing? The intervention was implemented in a preschool group of 15 children. The data included around 120 minutes of recorded video and 30 drawings. The holistic and context‐sensitive interpretation method of visual analysis was used to analyse the data. The interpretation demonstrated the importance of peer relationships and offered insight into the context significance. By drawing together and telling small stories in a shared time and place, the children negotiated their roles within the small group. They strengthened friendships and built peer relations. The drawing situation probably exposed pre‐existing tensions between the children, and the children showed interest, support, care, and willingness to welcome others. The music and fairy tale experiences allowed children to process emotions and share their current daily lives.

“…From a pedagogical perspective, visual methods have been used to assist pre‐service teachers to interrogate their beliefs and reflect on past experiences (Bailey & Van Harken, 2014; Grushka & Young, 2014). These visual images have both been used to initiate reflection (Uner et al , 2012) and been seen as the outcome of the reflection process (Orland‐Barak & Maskit, 2014). Within this domain of visual methods of expression, comics have been used in education as one mode of visual representation (Rocamora‐Pérez et al , 2017; Green & Myers, 2010; Tribull, 2017).…”

Exploring one's life-history in order to unearth how one's past influences current conceptions of teaching is commonly employed in teacher education. Recognising the constructed and situated nature of autobiographical memory, this study examines autobiographical comics completed by pre-service early childhood educators as part of the first year of pre-service programme in Spain. Analysing the completed comics through the lens of autobiographical memory, the study found that the comics presented common general events and lifetime periods and drew on archetypal images of teaching and schools to represent their educational past. The study also found that the pre-service students drew on a common life script representing an uncomplicated journey towards educational success. The article highlights the beliefs and assumptions that are revealed in their analysis and how teacher educators can use such resources to interrogate the social and cultural norms of the pre-service educators.
