Working Creatively with Stories and Learning Experiences - Engaging with Queerly Identifying Tertiary Students

Stories are a valuable vehicle for practitioners in research, education, human services and the arts to enable individual and cultural change. The authors describe and deploy a variety of methods that can be used by teachers, researchers, artists, youth and community workers, and other professionals to analyse stories in ways that can promote learning and wellbeing and enhance professional practice. Offering a concise and user-friendly assemblage of techniques on how to creatively engage with stories, the authors explore and exemplify these techniques through the narratives of Queerly Identifying Tertiary Students. This practical and innovative volume will appeal to readers, researchers and practitioners alike.
