Narrative inquiry is being used more widely in the UK, the USA,
Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Northern European countries to
conduct research across a range of disciplines. It is gaining
popularity in Hong Kong, Macao and Mainland China, but research in
these contexts continues to be dominated by quantitative and more
traditional qualitative approaches. Narrative inquirers in these
areas can, therefore, find it problematic to have the value of
their work acknowledged. This book demonstrates creatively,
accessibly and rigorously the ways in which narrative inquiry as a
methodological approach, already more firmly established in
Australia and New Zealand, is gaining a foothold in other parts of
the Asia Pacific region. Contributors to the book write about their
use of narrative inquiry in, for example, the Confucian heritage
cultures (CHC) of Hong Kong, Mainland China, Singapore, Macao and
the Anglo-Celtic cultures of Australia and New Zealand. Chapters in
the book include: Creative Non-Fiction Across Cultures in Asia
Pacific Contexts Riding the Wave of Education Reform: Using a
Reflecting Team to Explore the Professional Identities of School
Counsellors in Hong Kong Is the Silent Mode On? Re-searching
Teachers' Voices in Macao through Narrative Research Narrative
Inquiry and the Exploration of Culture for Improving Teacher
Education This book will appeal to researchers across all sectors
of education, in particular those who are exploring, the use of
qualitative research methods in their context. Those interested in
comparative education and cross-cultural studies will also find
this book valuable.
