description | <p>Our article offers a vision of how collaborative processes of<br />knowledge-making in an interdisciplinary faculty writing<br />group can transform professional lives of isolation into ones<br />that flourish. Central to our co-creation of knowledge are<br />the practice of storytelling in a critical self-reflective manner and<br />the elements of commitment, connection and relationship.<br />Together we have found that these elements provide basic<br />strategies for managing the isolation that would otherwise<br />be a significant force in our working lives.<br />Our commitment is epistemological and moral, as we<br />commit to knowledge-making, but also to each other as<br />individuals and as moral agents, to our values, and to bringing<br />our values into our work. Learning about ourselves<br />together can enhance our sense of identity and our ability to<br />navigate limits and boundaries.<br />Through supportive, intentional and reflective collaboration,<br />we re-vision knowledge-making as fundamentally social<br />and relational, and theorizing as grounded in the specificity<br />of narratives of shared, lived experience.</p> |
