This advanced training is for all doctoral students across the South East who are interested in using oral history methods.
Four sessions, beginning 30 October 2015
Oral history is a deep and dialogical form of interviewing which can enhance historical understanding as well as contributing e to cultural organizations and community development. It has been used to promote inter-generational relationships and open up the cultural environment though interactive story-telling, creative uses of memory art and reminiscence programmes.
After completing the course, you will have experience of interviewing, archiving, analysing and curating. You will understand oral history as academic method, data-source and creative story-form. The course will also feature masterclasses with leaders in the field and an oral history-led audiowalk in London. Students will have access to computers in class and recording equipment.
