Log 3 summarise main project findings

My research question was “Can using the inclusive method (practised by Chickenshed) develop a person’s awareness in sexual health?”
Completion of each stage of my project depended on the value of research gathered. Using action research I had a constant view to develop and improve my performance based workshop which went through many stages of development. Using various research tools over a 6 month period Ed-sex-tra was able to fulfil its its goal in creating a performance based workshop that could be taken into a secondary school, in doing so we have successfully developed Chickenshed’s outreach work which was an aim of my project. We delivered the workshop to a class of pupils with a view to broaden their perceptions of sexual health (focussing on sexually transmitted infections and diseases) 83% of male participants and 70% of females within the secondary school agreed that other young people should attend this workshop. Within the collected feedback there was clear view that participants had indeed been influenced by our workshop activities and learned more on Sexually transmitted diseases and infections, I believe this to be in consequence to the way in which we followed inclusion throughout the entire process. Ed-sex-tra succeeded in creating an open, comfortable environment for students to learn in, not just within the workshop but also in each research activity. It is therefore a simple word that can answer my research question, Yes!
