Hence, researchers adopt participant-driven research methodologies like photo-elicitation to develop collaborative research. However, limited knowledge exists regarding how individuals perceive their involvement in these research processes. This qualitative descriptive study explored the perspectives of sixteen middle-school students (N = 13 autistic students) as they participated in the Photovoice research process as data collectors. Students participated in interest-driven informal afterschool clubs and used Photovoice to document their problem-solving experiences. Through thematic analysis of semi-structured interview data, we learned that students appreciated the unique characteristics of the Polaroid cameras, including the ability to manipulate the cameras and touch the photos physically, the distinct sensory features that physical photos provided, creating memories with peers and using photos as a visual tool to support improvisation and brainstorming during problem-solving. The results of this study specifically highlight students’ views on the aspects they valued and those they found unfavorable as they participated in the research process.

Experiences of Students, Teachers, and Parents Participating in an Inclusive, School-Based Informal Engineering Education Program / Yu-Lun CHEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-8 (August 2022)

Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many youth on the autism spectrum possess interests and strengths for STEM-related postsecondary pathways, yet there are few research-based programs to support those interests and competencies including complex problem solving and social communication. This qualitative study explored the experiences and perceived outcomes of students, teachers, and parents participating in an inclusive, strength-based, extracurricular engineering design program entitled the IDEAS Maker Club. Twenty-six students, 13 parents, and nine teachers in the program completed interviews and program logs while researchers conducted classroom observations over 2 years. Thematic analysis identified five common themes: (1) positive student experience and engagement, (2) skills acquisition, (3) development of interest in STEM and related careers, (4) social relationships and community, and (5) safe spaces that supported self-determination.
