Making Sense of Teaching: A Narrative Inquiry into Developing Knowedge Communities among Preservice Teachers in India
Arbol, Bobby
Curriculum and Teaching Dialogue, v17 n1-2 p103-120 2015
This article examines four preservice teachers in India, who came together on a web-based forum to form a private group. The act of coming together enabled them to share narratives of self and teaching in a safe place termed as a knowledge community in the literature. Narrative threads from the conversations instantiate their awakening to the nuances of teaching, bridging of theory-practice gap, deliberating culturally relevant practices, and enabling construction and reconstruction of their personal-practical knowledge in context.
