In the Classroom: “We Learn in . . . Stories”
Kathy Hargrove
Educational psychologist Frank Smith wrote that “Thought flows in . . . stories about events, stories about people, and stories about intentions and achievements. The best teachers are the best storytellers. We learn in . . . stories” (“Quotations,” n.d.). Perhaps he is right about learning from stories, but not just stories from teachers. I was reminded just last semester how much I have learned from my students’ stories and how much they have learned from their students.
