Introductory videos for teenagers as researchers

The creation of these videos served as a valuable visual resource to provide a clear understanding of research participation, the various research phases, and the overall timeline of the research project. This visual aid was particularly beneficial for the teenage participants, as it offered them a tangible and accessible way to grasp the intricacies of engaging in research. By watching these videos, they could gain insight into what the research process entails and develop a clearer picture of what they could expect when actively participating in the project. This visual representation, presented through a medium familiar to teenagers, not only demystified research but also ensured inclusivity and appropriateness in recruiting participants. It provided the participants with a tool they were comfortable with, enhancing their comfort and confidence in taking part in the research.

Data collection method:

I created an account with Powtoon (https://powtoonsupport.powtoon.com/hc/en-gb) and used it to create these videos to ensure accessibility and the utilisation of appropriate sampling techniques for teenagers for my PhD study. My study is an exploratory participatory research and these videos were used to help with the recruitment of teenagers. All content is mine, and the videos have accreditation to Powtoon, the platform on which this was made, because I used a free subscription.
