Résumé

The paper outlines a narrative method for the study of teaching. The method's principal feature is the reconstruction of classroom meaning in terms of narrative unities in the lives of classroom participants. Narrative method is explored through comparative analyses with closely associated lines of work in which each method's contributions to our understanding of classrooms are detailed. Narrative method offers a way to understand teaching and learning in classrooms as a temporal process reflecting the biographic histories of classroom participants.
