L'approccio narrativo per conoscere la pratica del docente

The article examines the narrative approach to teacher training recalling the interpretive turn in social sciences and the phenomenological method and it draws growing legitimacy of storytelling as a tool of qualitative empirical research. Studies are examined that conceptualized how the mind processes subjective experiences leading to an organization of experience in narrative plots, with a reference to Vygotskij’s interactive-constructionist approach and an analysis of the tool of narrative interview for the understanding of teaching from the point of view of the teacher.
