Interrelations Between the Media-Related “Visual Cultures” of Children and the Demands of School : The “Seeing Glasses” as a Development of “Camera Ethnography”

• The pupils of a 9th grade wear the Seeing Glasses during the school lessons in one week. The Seeing Glasses are spectacles with an inbuilt digital, video and audio recording camera. It is a new way of collecting data about the contexts on which the wearers of the glasses set their gazes, as well as about reciprocating gazes – altogether constituting visual cultures. The pupils also edit the film material in order to create films about `our life in school´. A stationary camera and participating observations document the classroom context. In our qualitative empirical case studies we will…follow the underexposed claim of youth studies to give adolescents the possibility to express their social relations, everyday life and individuality by gazes and by film editing.investigate the effects of gazes of kids in school, creating pedagogically desirable relations like learning and positive social relations, or such that are undesirable as harassment and provocation.explore and evaluate Seeing Glasses as a research instrument within Camera Ethnography in terms of its methodological and research-technical implications.
