Hi all,
So glad this list is here...

I have been buried in new work, and only just looking at emails from this list. Part of the new work is the publication of my book, Men & Women and Tools - Bridging the Divide, coming out from Fernwood Publishing this fall. Using performative auto-ethnography as a methodology, the centrepiece is a play, based on a group-interview I undertook with 4 tradesmen and myself, a journeylevel carpender. Interwoven are autoethnographic stories of my life and experience in this world, and historical, cultural, and psychological explorations  Play Rites festival at UBC, the professional actors gave life to the stories and to the play. The book is based on my PhD dissertation at UBC in late 2004. (Hi Dalene!) (I used a whole story by Dalene Swanson which looked at teaching math in an all boys school in my original dissertation work, and parts of it in the book.)

I have attached the publisher's PDF flyer on the book, but I am not sure this list accepts attachments, the material can be found on the forthcoming page of:  http://www.fernwoodpublishing.ca/?mode=releases&season=forthcoming

scroll down and click on (more information), the cover is wonderful...an incredible rendering,  by a world renowned artist, of the melding of disparate objects, glass and bronze... men and women.

Dear Jodi

 

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. My PhD dissertation, Voices in the Silence: narratives of disadvantage, social context and school mathematics in post-apartheid South Africa, deployed a narrative-based, auto-ethnography-oriented approach that was highly dialogical and reflexive. If you are interested, see my website link below for details on my dissertation, or contact me at this e-mail address.

 

Good luck with your important work!

Dalene

Subject: [autoethnography] Request for references

 

 

Hello All,

I am a doctoral candidate who just completed an autoethnographic study of a
pelvic teaching program within a medical school. I had been part of this program
years ago as a teaching associate who utilized my own body as the site of
teaching ... In my own research, i utilized participant observation, interviews,
and focus groups (within the same program as I had been a teaching associate) as
methods to fill the story in, and to assist with re-call/re-storying of my
reflections & experiences. I was wondering if anyone had references on dialogic
forms of authoethnographic research/writing? I am looking for some examples of
work that used interviews with other participants within their autoethnographic
work.

Thank you,
