The Narrative Research SIG is dedicated to supporting conversations about the place of narrative in educational research including, but not limited to Narrative Inquiry, phenomenology, literacy, critical, and performance conceptions of narrative analysis. The purpose of the Narrative Research SIG is to provide a forum for the exchange of information among individuals interested in informing and/or rethinking narrative research through a variety of narrative research studies in/with participants in a variety of educational settings.
The AERA Narrative SIG logo design was contributed by Gayle Curtis (University of Houston/Texas A&M University) and Michealann Kelley (Mount St. Joseph University).
The reflected tree image represents narrative knowledge passed on from one researcher to another, branching out to new areas yet always with reflective practice at its roots.
