Learning and identity development are lifetime processes of
becoming. The construction of self, of interest to scholars and
practitioners in adult development and adult learning, is an
ongoing process, with the self both forming and being formed by
lived experience in privileged and oppressive contexts.
Intersecting identities and the power dynamics within them shape
how learners define themselves and others and how they make meaning
of their experiences in the world. The series, I Am What I Become:
Constructing Identities as Lifelong Learners, is an insightful and
diverse collection of empirical research and narrative essays in
identity development, adult development, and adult learning. The
purpose of this series is to publish contributions that highlight
the intimate and intricate connections between learning and
identity. The series aims to assist our readers to understand and
nurture adults who are always in the process of becoming. We hope
to promote reflection and research at the intersection of identity
and adult learning at any point across the adult lifespan. The rich
array of qualitative research designs as well as autobiographic and
narrative essays transform and expand our understanding of the
lived experience of people both like us and unlike us, from the
U.S. and beyond. Narratives on Becoming: Identity and Lifelong
Learning, Volume Three of the series, explores a myriad of ways
that authors' personal and professional growth has influenced
identity development. These chapters provide insights into the
intersectional identities and learning of writers. Drawing from the
multiple paths that comprise the journey of lifelong learning,
these authors present powerful stories that identify the ways
relationships, environments, culture, travel, and values shape
their identities; use literacy, teaching, and learning as vehicles
for experimenting with new identities, negotiate multiple
identities, contexts, and transitions involved in becoming, and
construct meaning. Through their narrative essays and
ethnographic/autobiographical accounts, the authors in this volume
illuminate the power of transformational learning during
life-changing events and transitions.
