Stories To Live By

Drawing on a broader narrative inquiry into the curriculum making of participants who compose identities dissonant with dominant stories of gender and sexuality, this article explores the shaping influence of the social (relationships, communities, and contexts) in one participant's life story around sexuality from a curricular perspective. The term curriculum making represents an ongoing process through which individuals make sense and meaning of experience, position curriculum broadly as a course of life, and shift notions of curriculum and curriculum making beyond the bounds of school. Individuals engage in identity making as they make sense of themselves in relation to their curriculum making, narratively understood as the composition of stories to live by. This inquiry highlights the ways that life stories are composed alongside, connected to, and shaped by other people and draws the attention of educators to the complex lives unfolding in schools.

Autobiographical Narrative

Using autobiographical narrative inquiry (Connelly & Clandinin, 1990), I inquire into my experiences as a teacher, beginning with an inquiry into my early experiences on home and school landscapes. I explore my teacher stories to live by (Connelly & Clandinin, 1999) and inquire into how my stories have shifted and changed, over time and place. As I explore the bumping places and tensions I experience as teacher, my purpose is to show the ways I learned to attend to children’s familial curriculum-making worlds (Huber, Murphy, & Clandinin, 2011). In doing so I offer a possible counter narrative of curriculum making in schools, which honors and validates children’s stories of experiences lived and told in homes and communities.

Being And Becoming

In this paper, we retell the process of our collective autobiographical narrative inquiry into our experiences of teaching online.  Our research wonders come from two questions, What is online teaching? and, Who are we in this space? Early in our time together we came to understand how our individual backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives have influenced the ways we see, create, and navigate our place, and our students’ place, in online classroom communities.  We also came to understand how the stories to live by that we carried of becoming “teacher” shaped the ways we live and experience online teaching. From this collective experience we see the potential and value of autobiographical narrative inquiry for all those being and becoming online teachers.
