CHAPTER FIVE: DATA ANALYSIS of dramaturgical devices within the drama lessons. Ihe second cycle of the research focussed on the question of how the participants’ awareness of the artistic purpose and knowledge of tools can help in consciously creating gaps in dominant social narratives in living through improvisations. I will analyse data from the two cycles separately, because they offer themselves for understanding different segments of the central research question. I will look at the inclusion of Bondian concepts in LTD in general in the first cycle and then investigate further on how the participants’ framing into an artistic thinking can impact on LTD. FIRST CYCLE I conducted a series of three drama lessons each in three different schools in Budapest, nine lessons in total, between November 2015 and February 2016 with 9-11 year old children. I describe the mode of selecting the group in the research methodology chapter. I worked with the complete class and in the space of their classroom, in school time. I developed three series of drama lessons to explore how the Bondian concepts of Site, Centre, Cathexis, Enactment can be integrated into drama lessons based on a living through approach. I present the analysis of the data using the concept of Site as it incorporates all other Bondian concepts as well. I investigate the focus group interviews, questionnaires, reflective diaries, video recordings and additional data like artwork created by participants to see how the concepts could be employed and what benefits they made to the process drama. But before I start the analysis I will summarize the narratives of the drama lessons of the three series so the moments and events highlighted in the analysis can be understood as parts in this process. Because of the lack of space I am only offering a rough outline of the stories here: I am giving emphasis to elements that will be referred to in the analysis. The Three Series of Drama Lessons The data analysis will not refer to the series of lessons in a linear format, I will share the narratives they were based on and the focus of investigation behind the planning in this preparatory section. This will provide a context for the analysis that will be based on what the data tells us about the concepts explored and also allow a comparative approach where needed. + 170 +
