Reflection In Action: Constructive Narratives Of Experience, Nilofar Vazir
Institute for Educational Development, Karachi
This paper examines narratives of experience from teachers’ lives. It locates teachers as academic constructors of knowledge and uses the cases of reflective practice and inquiry in the development of self‐knowledge.
