520 $a This is a narrative dissertation telling the tale of how one teacher learned to trust narratives and to see the importance of narratives in the classroom and in life. This dissertation seeks to show how trusting narratives can help build stronger community among colleagues, among teachers and students, and among family and friends. This study is, in part, autobiographical. It tells of one teacher's struggle to learn to understand and value stories in her own practice. This personal narrative attempts to explain the author's resistance to story, despite the author's training and belief in narrative theory gained during graduate school.
520 $a The study also includes stories collected from the author's family members, colleagues, and students. The family stories are based on reflective memories as well as a formal family interview. These stories were analyzed to explore the role storytelling plays in maintaining family relationships, particularly during times of stress and crisis, in this case the death of the author's grandfather. The family stories were also used as a vehicle for examining storytelling rules that guide family interactions. Stories collected from colleagues come from a variety of sources: the Catalyst (an English department newsletter), informal observations conducted across a branch campus, and both formal and informal interviews with colleagues. Student stories were collected from student assignments written for various English classes. Student stories were chosen which exhibited students' use of storytelling to handle personal crisis. These stories are discussed in light of student/teacher interactions as the stories were being written.
520 $a This dissertation concludes by arguing for the importance of storytelling as a way to break down barriers and connect with those around. In coming to trust narratives, and therefore sharing them more, we can increase our understanding of others and therefore build a stronger connection to them. This is the central lesson this author learned and recounts in this narrative study.
