 1 Teaching introductory courses differs from teaching intermediate and advanced-level courses in a number of ways. First, core competences in introductory courses include such things as basic comprehension, recognition of difference, and construction of simple essay arguments.youtube.com Intermediate and advanced courses on the other hand emphasize competences such as critical examination of materials, command of sophisticated, advanced concepts, exposure to the research process, formulating research questions and constructing arguments.  2 DeCuyper (1997 DeCuyper, S. 1997-98.youtube.com On the future of photographic representation in anthropology: lessons from the practice of community photography in Britain.  3 For a readable and thorough historical account of photography and the geographical imagination, see Schwartz & Ryan (2003 Schwartz, J. and Ryan, J. 2003. Picturing Place: Photography and the Geographical Imagination, London: I.B.


They date the affair between geography and photography to 1839 with the announcement of the invention of a "process for fixing an image directly from nature using optical chemical means (the daguerreotype)". Geographers latched on to the new technology immediately.  4 This idea is discussed in the work of Griffin (1993 Griffin, M. 1993. The millstone of popular culture: competing with the commercial mass production of cultural imagery.  5 Communication specialists are interested in the meaning of images whereas aficionados of photography are more interested in discussions of sampling density, the effect of sky cover and sun direction, and messages implied by cropping, zooming, perspective and foregrounding/background. Thanks to the reader in the blind review process for pointing this out.

"Seeing beyond belief: cultural studies as an approach to analyzing the visual". In Handbook of Visual Analysis, Edited by: van Leeuwen, T. and Jewitt, C. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications. Rose's work and note that it seems not to advance a specific methodology but, rather, lists an agenda of questions and issues for addressing specific images. 10 One can only speculate on why he thought photographs documented the end. 11 Of note, the theme of the 2002 meeting of the International Visual Sociology Association was Visualizing Community, State, and Nation: Images of Power and Social Bond.


12 The notion of ideal type as used here draws on the work of Weber (1958 Weber, M. 1958. Essays in Sociology, New York: Oxford University Press. Specifically he suggests that because social phenomena involve human behaviour, understanding them requires that they be situated in one of four categories—emotion, custom/habit, rational, or irrational. Ideal types, then, are phenomena that appear normal, logically consistent and sufficiently different so as to stand out. 13 Globalization is defined as the increasing integration of national economies into the international economy through trade, direct foreign investment, capital flows, and flows of workers and technology. 14 Barndt's work is international; deCuyper's work is on the city scale; and Orella's is on the neighbourhood scale. 15 I have been teaching for 22 years.


During that time, it has become apparent to me that although students can answer a question about a geographic concept, often they cannot place it in the ground—‘see’ how it looks and how it plays out spatially. Observing this has led me to believe that the ability to ‘see’ does not come naturally. I began formal coursework in photography five years ago. Since then, I have learned to appreciate visual culture. Importantly, what I realized was that everything I saw, I did not necessarily understand. The possibilities connected with marrying the practice of geography with the practice of photography were indeed unlimited as the early geographers with the Colonial Office Visual Instruction Committee (COVIC) had already observed. 16 The university's core curriculum requires that students take courses such as Art History and Introduction to Visual Language. I think these courses provide some foundation for the visual demands of this class.


17 Urban social geography is that subfield of the discipline that seeks answers to questions like: Why do city populations get sifted according to race and class producing distinctive neighbourhoods? What processes are responsible for the sifting? How do households and individuals become physically segregated within the city? Does location within a city affect behaviour? How do people make choices regarding where they live? What groups are able to manipulate the geography of the city and to whose advantage? These questions are noted in the introduction to Knox and Pinch's classic textbook, Urban Social Geography (2000 Knox, P. and Pinch, S. 2000. Urban Social Geography: An Introduction, London: Pearson Education. 18 This is accomplished by fostering learning not only through traditional ways of reading and writing but through non-traditional ways of seeing, listening, talking, etc. In other words, using all the senses to acquire knowledge.


19 As noted, however, many students come to the class having already taken a photography course or with a very keen interest in picture taking. For those with absolutely no foundation, several supports (e.g. sociological and anthropological sourcebooks, one-on-one discussions outside class, and email conversations) are available. I also have on hand a number of ‘photography’ books that students can use as a guide. 20 For a fuller discussion of geographies of exclusion, see Sibley (1995 Sibley, D. 1995. Geographies of Exclusion, London: Routledge. 21 Sibley (1995 Sibley, D. 1995. Geographies of Exclusion, London: Routledge. Low (2003 Low, S. 2003. Behind the Gates: Life, Security, and the Pursuit of Happiness in Fortress America, New York: Routledge. 22 For an exhaustive discussion of gentrification, see Lees (1996 Lees, L. 1996. In the pursuit of difference: representations of gentrification.


23 Reliance on the private car is peculiar to the US in particular and even so, not in all cities, e.g. New York City. 24 These material expressions include small-scale doors and windows that face the street, walkability, comfort and accessibility. 25 Though it is rare not to need a caption, captions do ‘play with’ viewer independence in a hyper-realistic way. 26 Although students have considerable flexibility, projects like food tastings and fashion shows are not allowed. The project has to be one that can be presented to a professional association, an academic audience or a policy group. Many elect to do something akin to a photo-essay. 27 While some of the photo-essays were ‘realist’ in that they took the viewer on an actual route through an area, others were more iconic or representational.


28 DeCuyper (1997 DeCuyper, S. 1997-98. On the future of photographic representation in anthropology: lessons from the practice of community photography in Britain. Docklands in East London captured only the reality of white dock workers. During the initial phase of redevelopment, however, the Docklands comprised almost 50 per cent people of colour. 29 While this might seem problematic for some, Schilling and Schilling (1998 Schilling, K. and Shilling, K. 1998. "Proclaiming and sustaining excellence: assessment as a faculty role". In ASHE-ERIC. Higher Education Report Series, Washington, DC: George Washington University. ASHE-ERIC, list these among their ‘Ten Principles Underlying Effective Assessment’. 30 The classic instance of this was the student who brought in photos of a new development in Exton (an upper-income suburb of Philadelphia) and captioned it as an example of new urbanism. It was only after other students critiqued his work and forced him to delve deeply into the concept that he could see that his photographs were of a quasi-new-town development, not new urbanism.
