Narrativizing Digital Pedagogy
Aaron R. Gierhart; Robyn Seglem
International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), v37 n1 p67-81 2024
This article details the efficacy of utilizing narrative research methods to construct the narratives of teachers and learn more about the essence of digital pedagogy and developing a repertoire of digitally-mediated teaching practices. First, narrative methods are justified by conceptualizing pedagogy dynamically and narratively as opposed to using knowledge-based terms. Next, the dialogic nature of pedagogy is disseminated, situating teaching with technologies within authoritative and internal discourses. Then, the value of depicting a teacher's life story in narrativizing and understanding digital pedagogical development is discussed. Sample narration from Aaron's larger study is provided to situate and exemplify these methodological insights. To conclude, recommendations for the use of narrative methods in future research on digital pedagogy are disseminated with respect for promoting equitable and transformative digital pedagogical design.
