A Sense of Self

The recursive characteristic of learning over time is explored throughout a variety of genres and texts revealing both the author's learning during the research and writing process and the learning of the elementary school students as they move through their daily activities in school. The data was collected through participant observation ethnography. The author draws on Cultural Historical Activity Theory to understand the activities and tool use of the students. Feminist accounts of theory and practice demonstrate how the participants in the research practice shaping their identities and their awareness of others.
