This unique collection of exemplars explores narrative as a powerful means of inquiry, while also examining its possible limitations. Drawing on the experiences of teachers and teacher educators in a variety of settings who have been researching their own teaching, this book outlines a conceptual framework for considering narrative as a mode of inquiry, including narrative practices that teachers and researchers can try in their own settings.

“This book demonstrates the power of narrative knowing in the continuing development of teachers. Careful narrative research, as described here, is especially important now, when governmental policies are demanding an almost exclusive emphasis on experimental designs. This collection shows what we stand to lose if narrative research is discarded.”
—Nel Noddings, Lee L. Jacks Professor of Child Education Emerita, Stanford University
