This anthology explores life writing as a mode of educational inquiry, one where students and teachers may get a heart of wisdom as they struggle with the tensions and complexities of learning and teaching in challenging contemporary circumstances.

Four sections entitled Memory Work, Place Work, Curriculum Work, and Social Work explore the struggles and joys of pedagogy where relationships are at the heart of teaching and learning. The essays address questions such as: What critical moments in learning and teaching change lives? What stories need to be told? What questions ache to be asked? |
