PROCESSING EMOTIONS AND MEMORISING COURSEWORK THROUGH MEMORY DRAWING
Dr. Unnur Ottarsdottir, art therapist, teacher and artist from Iceland, will present her research on drawing and memory in this webinar. The quantitative part of the inquiry shows that memory drawing is an effective long-term memory aid. To the best of knowledge, research regarding such long-term memory of drawings as in the study presented, has not been conducted worldwide, prior to now.
The qualitative case study part demonstrates the way in which memory drawing can facilitate coursework learning and processing of emotions. The research will be contextualized within the literature on related research studies, methods and theories.
Participants will be invited to take part in a drawing/writing exercise which explains the way in which the quantitative part of the research was conducted. The exercise provides insight into the functions of memorising through drawing and writing.
Further information about the memory drawing research can be found in the paper “Processing Emotions and Memorising Coursework through Memory Drawing”, which was published in ATOL: Art Therapy OnLine.
