Teachers' knowledge as stories
I was thinking about the story I have been constructing in my individual narratives in the journal writing and making some relations to the extract below:
"Stories have plots; they unfold in ways that are surprising and sometimes defy normal logic, yet they are deeply coherent. Stories are also, as Elbaz points out, social; they engage others in a web of understanding. Both points are relevant when we refer to what teachers know as their stories. Teachers' knowledge and understandings develop through time with an internal, lived coherence(Freeman 1994). This knowledge is also built on interpersonal relationships; it is individually constructed within a network of social experience." (Donald Freeman, 1996)
What do you think?
