On Narrative Method, Biography and Narrative Unities in the Study of Teaching.

Connelly, F. Michael; Clandinin, D. Jean

Journal of Educational Thought, v21 n3 p130-39 Dec 1987

Outlines a method for the study of teaching, which reconstructs the meaning of specific classroom activities for students and teachers in terms of narrative unities (i.e., the union of all that a person has been and undergone with the past of the society that shaped him/her). Contrasts narratives and biographies. (DMM)
