Project scope
- What is the main goal for this project?
-
The proposed scholarly activity is the development of exploratory research into systems within art and academia and how they interact with the intersections of being a caregiver/mother, artist, and academic within a Canadian context. I will gather research on this topic via a course of interviews with practicing artist-academic-mothers and collecting existing published research on related themes.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
As a student Research Assistant, the student will aid in the administrative side of the research process – being lead on communications, transcriptions, and data management. This is a continuation of the student working in this RA position last spring and summer under funding from a SIG grant through the Office of Research.

- How will you support learners in completing the project?

I will support the student through frequent meetings and check ins; constant mentorship; and through providing information, training, and resources where necessary. Most of the training has already happened as we have previously worked together on this project and have established a good working relationship.
