During my master's, I hated methods. I thought they were boring. And now here I am as a university teacher, who is teaching methods to BSc and MSc students, enjoying this webinar to the maximum on a Sunday evening with a can of beer.

Thanks Prof Saunders. My PhD research is on Black Lives Matter and you have helped me to understand the research philosophy that I should apply (i.e. Post Modernism). 🙏🏾

Professor Saunders, thanks for sharing your amasing knowledge. I watched the webinar five months ago when I was tasked by Faculty to give a presentation on Practice-Based Research. Your Presentation gave me a lot of insights into how ontological and epistemological perspectives could be applied to research in the Creative Arts which is more multidisciplinary or transdisciplinary. Thanks so much again for sharing.

Working on a research paper & I read the book, but this webinar breaks it down better for me.
I'm now more confident to work on the Methodology chapter of the research. Thank you so much!

thank you prof Mark. i did not get you positivism approach.

[@dricab.m.t9507]

Interesting! Thank you. I am aware that we have our own understand of reality. But aren't we all part of each others realities? Do plural realities build our own reality? Thus, at the end, the others and I are part of the same thinking? So, how come results from a research with humans can share the same space with other researchers with different view?

[@tinotendamwatse1395]

everything is well explained but missed that part of positivism approach.
