“…A few researchers have applied it in schools (e.g. Kroeger et al, 2004, with at risk students, and Graziano, 2011, with minority English language learners). Singer and Shagoury (2005), for example, incorporated PhotoVoice into a unit that connected literacy to issues of equity with a diverse group of ninth graders in Oregon.…”

PhotoVoice' is a participatory documentary photography tool that empowers youth with little money, power, or status by providing them with opportunities to voice their critique and act for enhancing their realities. Grounded in critical literacy theory, this research tool has the potential to raise students' awareness to problematic issues in their surroundings and enable them to highlight such issues to the wider community. This article describes the journey I embarked upon as a teacher-researcher with my college students to apply such a tool in the Israeli-Arab classroom. After engaging a group of third year future English teachers in PhotoVoice projects, students' PhotoVoices were collected and analysed to explore what issues students addressed and the ways they used to do so. A description of the topics that students chose to highlight and the language used for demanding change is followed by students' as well as my reflections on the process.

“…Teacher C's view that her students' responses to teaching-learning class activities sometimes demand her to be creative in constructing the teaching material is supported by the fact that students are encouraged to acquire language and culture through folktale films. She refers to her students as curriculum co-designer (Graziano, 2011). The teachers' determination to innovate their teaching materials and teaching approach in their EFL classes by incorporating illustrations and other visual media related to folklore in language teaching aligns with Britsch's (2010) argument that visuals must be incorporated into EFL teaching-learning processes.…”

This study explored the way in which Elementary School teachers used Indonesian folklore in their English classes to help students improve their analytical and critical reasoning skills. Visual culture theory was employed to examine data from interviews through the use of pictures. Moreover, Kress’ (1991) social-constructionist method was applied to investigate the additional realities of folktales as a cultural reality. A descriptive qualitative research method was implemented. The data used were the five English teachers’ teaching strategies. The study revealed that the teachers’ final goal was for students to understand the moral message in the folklore. The teachers were innovative in their teaching materials and approach in their EFL classes by integrating illustrations and other visual media related to folklore in language teaching. Visual media was believed to help language development and vice versa. The strategies included the use of videos with English subtitles, reading texts, questions and examples from real life. The teachers’ efforts were aimed at sharpening students’ analytical reasoning skills. Students needed to answer questions that strengthened their critical reasoning skills, identifying inequities and providing feasible solutions. Teachers, who had a crucial role in maximizing the advantage of using folklore, needed to tailor the story’s discussion to the students’ level of understanding. The outcome of the study inferred that the use of English translations of Indonesian folktales in the classroom potentially affected students’ English language development.

“…Kolejny wniosek płynący z analizy Smitha to obserwacja, iż nauczyciele pod wpływem wyników projektu zmieniali metody pracy i zagadnienia poruszane na zajęciach zgodnie z preferencjami uczniów, w tym tych dotyczących częstszego korzystania z technologii na lekcji i podczas nauki. Uwagę na podobne zagadnienia zwraca również Kevin J. w artykule opisującym projekt PV realizowany na zajęciach języka angielskiego jako obcego (Graziano 2011). Graziano konkluduje, iż projekt pokazał, że dostępne, używane codziennie technologie, takie jak fotografia cyfrowa, wspierają naukę, motywują, a sama procedura PV jest skoncentrowana na uczniu, poprzez możliwość dostosowania technologii do jego preferencji, co podnosi motywację i poczucie własnej wartości.…”

“…Wyznaczenie tych potrzeb przez studentów oraz refleksja nad nimi miała w zamierzeniu badacza-lektora wspierać motywację do nauki i pomagać w wyznaczaniu indywidulanych celów edukacyjnych. Etapy realizacji projektu oparto na działaniach prezentowanych w artykule Kevina J. Graziano (Graziano 2011).…”

PhotoVoice to jakościowa, eksploracyjna, partycypacyjna metoda badania potrzeb stosowana w naukach społecznych. Służy ona do wyznaczania obszarów aktywności danej społeczności wymagających działań zmierzających do wprowadzenia pozytywnych zmian. PhotoVoice może być również wykorzystywany w badaniach edukacyjnych jako narzędzie badania potrzeb szkoleniowych lub opisywania, przez uczestników projektu, ich sytuacji edukacyjnej lub życiowej mającej związek i wpływ na uczenie się. Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia projekt pilotażowy, jaki został przeprowadzony podczas lektoratów języka polskiego akademickiego dla cudzoziemców na Uniwersytecie Kardynała Stefana Wyszyńskiego w Warszawie, dla którego inspiracją była metoda PhotoVoice.
