Scholartistry: Incorporating Scholarship and Art
Shanks, Michael; Svabo, Connie
Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, v6 n1 p15-38 2018
The notion of scholartistry, hybrid scholarship-arts practice, is introduced by situating it in the academic literature on research methodology. The article offers dynamic, dialogical exemplification and demonstration; it takes the form of a conversation among the visitors to an imaginary exhibition of scholartistic artifacts. Several examples of arts-based research methods are discussed in terms of knowledge production and creative competencies. Connections are drawn with post-disciplinary agendas in the academy and beyond. The argument is made that a distinctive field of scholartistry offers an expansion of project- and problem-based learning in manifold cultural and organizational fields that are looking for open-ended creative modes of design and production.
