SUMMARY:ONLINE: Community-engaged Research Session 6: Reflection and reflexivity
DESCRIPTION: \n\nAbout this session\n\nIn this session we will delve into 
 the role of reflection and reflexivity in qualitative research and 
 particularly\, how this influences the researcher and the quality of the 
 research.\n\nThis is part six of a six-series course offered by the 
 Knowledge Co-op\, a unit in the Research Office that endeavours to support 
 students with their community-engaged research.\n\n \n\n\n\nWhat previous 
 attendees have said about this series:\n\n\n	“It has been really lovely 
 to hear people processing the ideas we’ve explored through their own 
 research experiences” (Buhle Maseko-Macarther)\n\n\n\n\n\n	“Eye opening 
 especially on the participatory nature of community-engaged research from 
 the conception up to the implementation stage. Initially I had an 
 outsider/expert view where the researcher 'assumes' the community issues 
 and come up with solutions to work with community members” (Patrick 
 Kapito)\n\n\n\n\n\n	“It has been eye-opening as to how I need to proceed 
 with engaging with the community as I am still in the research methodology 
 phase” (Masturah Adams)\n\n\n\n\n\n	“This course helped me understand 
 that research has greater social impact when done with communities through 
 collaboration\, trust\, and shared benefit. It also encouraged me to 
 reflect on my own identity and biases\, and how they shape the way I engage 
 with communities in research.” (Emily Mashonganyika). \n\n\n
