The rationale behind this text is the idea that narrative can not only be a conceptual lens through which a particular discipline can be re-examined, but also an aid to help preservice teachers understand the potential importance of personal experience and reflective ways of knowing as they learn to become...

In 1994, the world joined South Africa in celebration of the results of its first democratic election.

However, Mandela's recent death has given birth to a more critical view of his Rainbow Nation. No matter how examined, education in South Africa remains steadfastly unequal, with many White children retaining the educational privileges inherent to apartheid. White children in South Africa overwhelmingly attend wealthy,...

The key to learning motivation is in what Sidorkin describes as -economy of relations, - a mechanism where personal relations between students and...

What is not widely canvassed in the public debate generated by violent video games is the role that military-themed games play in the wider process of militarization. The...

It is widely recognised that we are living through an age of the narrative . Many of the constituent disciplines in the social sciences resonate with this trend by using life history and narrative approaches and methods. As we move on from the modernist period which prioritised objectivity into the postmodern regard for subjectivity, this resort to narrative is likely to become more apparent and explicit in academic as well as social and commercial discourse.
One aspect of this narrative form which is commonly overlooked is that of the pedagogic encounter. This is the phenomenon which is... It is widely recognised that we are living through an age of the narrative . Many of the constituent disciplines in the social sciences resonate with ...

Grounded in the belief that hope comes from a place of reality, not necessarily popular ideology, this book explores the gap between designated and actual narratives within Teach For America. TFA founder Wendy Kopp stated that there is -nothing elusive- about successful teaching; people simply need to -work hard- and be -disciplined-. Taking an inquiry stance, Sarah Matsui surveyed and interviewed 26 of her fellow corps members in the Greater Philadelphia region. Their counternarratives collectively problematize this standard reform rhetoric. Many are working hard, yet their stories and...
