TY - JOUR ID - 16207 AU - Pánek, J - Pászto, Vít - Perkins, Chris PY - 2018 TI - Flying a kite: playful mapping in a multidisciplinary field-course JF - JOURNAL OF GEOGRAPHY IN HIGHER EDUCATION VL - 42 IS - 3 SP - 317-336 EP - 317-336 PB - ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD SN - 03098265 KW - Kite-mapping KW - Gozo KW - playful geography KW - research-led teaching KW - DIY mapping N2 - This article reviews the potential of kite-mapping as part of an interdisciplinary and multinational field course. It situates kite-mapping as a low cost, high quality, participatory approach, in relation to field use of maps, arguing that research might usefully attend to more than simply the skills acquired during the field exercise and the technicalities of the innovation. Evidenced from two day-long workshops on the Maltese island of Gozo we describe practical issues involved in making the mapping work. We draw on descriptions of field practice and deploy a multi-method evaluation of staff and student reactions and experiences to explore pedagogic aspects of kite-mapping. We conclude that the practices of kite-mapping significantly impact upon the value of the mapping technique, and highlight how creative and playful mapping processes implicit in the technique might usefully be deployed in other field contexts.
