Student Work/Research Spaces

Here is a little window into my 3 students' worlds. I asked them to photograph their researching spaces for me... the main places that they conduct their research. Interestingly all of them photographed their work desks with their computers for internet research very much present. However they all had mentioned the college library as a research resource. When I asked them about this they each replied that while they access books there and do a certain amount of researching in the library itself (depending on the loan restrictions on the books they were accessing) they all borrow the books and bring them home so they have the more comfortable and informal environment to research... drinking tea and listening to music and being able to say 'hey look at this' to housemates. Altogether a more social activity than you might imagine!
