The Problem of 鈥淢ethod鈥� in Youth Participatory Action Research, a presentation by Dr. Rub茅n A. Gaztambide-Fern谩ndez, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. As a research methodology, YPAR presents us with a peculiar problem with regards to "methods" because of entanglements between the empirical, the pedagogical, and the ethical are highlighted by the blurring of the lines between researcher and researched.

His current research focuses on the experiences of young artists attending urban arts high schools in Canada and the United States. He is also the Principal Investigator of Proyecto Latin@, a participatory action research project with Latin@ youth in Toronto.
