A participatory action research (PAR) study using co-operative inquiry methods was employed to examine the topic ‘spirituality and childbirth’. Co-operative inquiry (CI) reclaims the right of co-researchers to create knowledge from their own lived experience, an approach that works ‘with’ rather than ‘on’ people, valuing individual contributions. Traditionally, CI has been organised synchronously in the same physical location. However, with current events and need for greater global collaboration for divergent/convergent perspectives, an ‘asynchronous’ CI is important to consider. To date, the authors are not aware of any published/unpublished asynchronous co-operative inquiry research projects. This article describes how our inquiry group worked across global regions and time zones meeting online, via emails and discussion boards, and gathered data in an online repository. The outcomes of this inquiry are published elsewhere, here we discuss the novel methods used to support emergence of a modified CI. We offer insight into how our cycles of reflection and action matured and were possible and enhanced through virtual inquiry methods. While technology posed limitations, working asynchronously across time and space enabled rich and complex conversations. An asynchronous modified CI method allows a depth of inquiry to be achieved whilst retaining the purpose of CI.

使用虚拟平台进行异步合作查询

参与式行动研究(PAR)使用合作询问方法进行研究,以研究主题“精神和分娩”。合作研究(CI)要求合作研究者根据自己的生活经验创造知识的权利,这种方法是“与”人一起工作,而不是“对”人工作,从而珍视个人贡献。传统上,配置项是在相同的物理位置同步组织的。但是,鉴于当前发生的事件以及需要更大范围的全球合作以达成不同/融合的观点,“异步” CI的考虑非常重要。迄今为止,作者还不知道任何已发布/未发布的异步合作查询研究项目。本文介绍了我们的咨询小组如何在全球区域和时区通过电子邮件和讨论板在线开会的工作,并在在线存储库中收集数据。该查询的结果发表在其他地方,在这里我们讨论用于支持修改的CI出现的新颖方法。我们提供了有关我们的反思和行动周期如何成熟以及如何通过虚拟查询方法得以实现和增强的见解。尽管技术带来了局限性,但跨时间和空间进行异步工作却可以实现丰富而复杂的对话。异步修改的CI方法允许在保持CI目的的同时实现深度查询。尽管技术带来了局限性,但跨时间和空间进行异步工作却可以实现丰富而复杂的对话。异步修改的CI方法可以实现深度查询,同时保留CI的目的。尽管技术带来了局限性,但跨时间和空间进行异步工作却可以实现丰富而复杂的对话。异步修改的CI方法可以实现深度查询,同时保留CI的目的。
