Adopting narrative action research approach, the first author reflected on her experience in the second author's class in which story-telling is the key component. The traditional teacher-dominated way of teaching and learning was replaced by the participatory and egalitarian relationship in which teacher and student both are story-teller. The first author, who has been a social work teacher for more than 10 years, was first shocked by the alternative design of the class. The first author participated in the classroom as observer, group co-leader, and eventually story-teller. This process of moving from outsider to insider provided an opportunity for the first author to reflect on her understanding of teaching in mainland China and trigger the rethinking the issues, such as who is the subject in the classroom, who can be a teacher, what is the relationship between a teacher and a student. This reflection opens up possibilities of teaching and learning for the first author. |
