Abstract
Upon reviewing eleven dissertations completed during the last decade (2006–2016) in The University of British Columbia’s art education program, this chapter addresses the following questions: (1) What are the qualities of art making and how does art making function within arts-based research?; (2) How is art making used to investigate educational issues?; and (3) How is art making reflected in the dissertation structure? This chapter posits that arts-based research is uniquely situated within qualitative research, calling scholars to reflexively and reflectively consider their relations to artistic forms of inquiry. In looking forward, we anticipate PhD research will continue to provoke the boundaries of research leading to new forms of engagement and enhanced understandings of educational phenomena.
