Project thinking, project practice: Experiences using rich pictures in a project of academic development
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a ‘methodological experiment’ whereby some elements of Soft Systems Methodology, in particular the concept of ‘rich pictures’, have been used to support academic development work. It provides some insights into how identifying stakeholders and involving them in a collective ‘rich picture drawing’ process can be beneficial to a project of academic development. The paper also draws attention to various levels of ‘filtering’ that may occur when planning and performing the drawing of rich pictures as a collective endeavour.
