What If ... Self Evaluation

What problem did you identify? 
How do you direct students to interesting and unseen urban areas of Leeds?  

What evidence did you find to support your decisions?

There was a lot of graffiti done around leeds and after gathering loads of images to support this factor we created our project to help find ways in which we could help to put graffiti in the right areas and to change what people think of it, because we really questioned whats the difference between graffiti and art.

What methods did you use to gather your evidence and what forms did it take? 

Quantitative Research

Qualitative Research

Graphs

Questionnaires

Internet 

Library Books  

What methods of research did you find useful and why?

I think that the questionnaires once turned into graphs where most useful due to it gave the thoughts and opinions on what the people who actually live in leeds think about the art which is created around leeds. From the research we got a shocking return of facts.

How did these inform your response to the problem? 

They helped to give the general idea on how the final outcome should look to best answer what the brief was requiring.

What methods did you encounter as problematic? 

Trying to gather the areas in which the graffiti had taken place as these areas are not widely publicised due to that being the objective of our project.

How did you ovecome this? 

Searching the internet and going out and searching for the graffiti ourselves, this was a long task but it payed off in the end.

What research could you have carried out that would have proved more useful? 

Asked the council of leeds as they would have the areas which need cleaning and this could also give us an idea of graffiti which even the council don't know about. This would make things even better as a project in the whole.
