Visual Culture: A Case Study

Woods, Carrie L.

Abstract Details

2007, Master of Arts (MA), Ohio University, Art Education (Fine Arts).
The research question for this case study was based on how students in a beginning education class would respond to studying visual culture. In this study, participants were shown a film titled "Ethnic Notions." This film discussed racial visual culture and how it affected and still affects African Americans. The participants in this study answered questionnaires and participated in a critical discussion about visual culture and racist images. Many of the participants had a strong emotional response to the film. The participants stated that they understood the racist imagery better, as well as visual culture. Included in this study are recommendations for teaching topics using visual culture and how it could be incorporated into many educational topics.
