Introducing Research/Craft, my interview series with historians + people from related disciplines that talks about issues of historical methodology + qualitative research that are rarely discussed, even less frequently taught. #academictwitter https://youtu.be/XLLqswLqPcY ">https://youtu.be/XLLqswLqP... 1/
So much about research practice + historical methodology is taken for granted. We leave our students, whether undergrad or grad, to reinvent the wheel when they head to the archive. Research/Practice aims to fill that fundamental gap by showcasing + encouraging conversations 2/
Of course there& #39;s value in doing our work more efficiently + helping our students develop information management skills they can bring to other fields. (Often think of this line from a 2019 interview / journalist @Fahrenthold) 3/
Yet discussion of methodology can also open up deeper consideration of topics like genre + historiography. Working with our sources in new or more organized ways can lead us to new stories, richer ways of writing history 4/
In Research/Craft #1, I talk w/ @varsha_venkat_ + @LisetteVaron about organizing research materials, notetaking, + other topics. Definitely a useful conversation for scholars at all stages. https://youtu.be/DKv2GIFqBX0

More Research/Craft interviews to come this week. To be seen how frequently I do these going forward, especially given my plans for fall still up in air. But later in the summer I& #39;ll host a Zoom call (to be posted on YouTube) for research Q&A. Other interviews on deck 6/
I& #39;m excited about this project but need your help. In addition to RTing + sharing Research/Craft, please consider adding my methods videos to your syllabi. They& #39;re already taught in grad + undergrad history + political science courses in US + Colombia https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLInjTK7TLuVc-7Lf7X3kwNKnxE57GjjQ6">https://www.youtube.com/playlist... 7/
