So... I've thinking about research a lot lately. Obviously, I have been reading quite a lot of research written by others and now, I have begun the laborious process of designing an inquiry of my own. No easy task. Upon reading the work of another, I came across the idea of Social Construction. I began the process of learning more and stumbled upon Kenneth Gergen out of Swarthmore college. I was intrigued by his examination of the constructivist theory and issues explained through the exploration of the social construction theory. I am interested in learning more about how social construction in linked to literacy.
I am beginning think I may have research interests in narratives of the self; the processes of social construction; relational theory, and the rhetoric of inquiry.
And the quest continues...
