“…Adams and Herrmann (2020) explain that autoethnography research must encompass three elements: “selfhood, subjectivity, and personal experience ( auto ) to describe, interpret, and represent ( graphy ) beliefs, practices, and identities of a group or culture ( ethno ) (p. 2). Adams et al. (2014) offer several important reasons to use this research methodology: To critique, make contributions to, and/or extend existing research and theory To embrace vulnerability as a way to understand emotions and improve social life To disrupt taboos, break silences, and reclaim lost and disregarded voices To make research accessible to multiple audiences.…”

“…To enhance the limited literature on the experience of maternal bereavement we elected to use a collaborative autoethnographic approach to our research. Autoethnography is a qualitative research method that enables researchers to use their personal experiences to describe and critique cultural beliefs, practices, and experiences (Adams et al., 2014). The writer is both the researcher and the research participant and uses autoethnography as a tool to explore identity (Hoppes, 2014).…”

The purpose of this study is to explore the experience of maternal bereavement. As scholar practitioners the authors offer their personal narratives to bring awareness to the multifaceted aspects of grieving the death of a child. Using collaborative autoethnography as the study’s methodology enabled the authors to explore their connection to the sociocultural context of maternal grief. Data collection consisted of a dialogue process that took place electronically through the course of asynchronous messages. Data analysis revealed three interrelated themes: transformation, constructing meaning, and creative ways of knowing. The findings are examined in light of literature regarding maternal bereavement and the expressing of grief through writing. The study concludes with a discussion on implications and recommendations for bereaved mothers and those who serve this population.

“…Autoethnography (Adams et al, 2014; Russell, 1998) emerged in the 1990s as a method of inquiry that encourages self-reflexivity and introspection to connect personal identities to the broader understanding of culture (Pitard, 2019). This process challenges positivist epistemologies while engaging in systematic data analysis methods that transform the perceptions of the self and how other see ourselves (Kumar, 2020).…”

In this article, I reflect on experiences of Brown (or South Asian) in/visibility in teacher education. Using an autoethnographic approach, I share reflexive personal and professional counternarratives of my experiences as a Brown person and Brown teacher-educator committed to issues of justice in the diverse context of Toronto, Canada. I explore how Brown invisibility operates in desiring recognition, insider knowings, investments in ambiguity, and relational harm and liberation. I trouble the ways in which theoretical frames open and limit experiences and expressions of Brownness, locating myself in between postcolonial and anti-colonial theorizing and notions of racial ambiguity in DesiCrit. I conclude with the importance of making visible the experiences and constructions of Brownness in faculties of education and education more broadly, as a form of solidarity that both resists Brown invisibility and exposes Brown complicity in an aspirational whiteness that maintains racial hierarchies through its invisibility.

This text is about teaching evocative autoethnography in higher education. The main part entitled ‘On stage’ is a record of the presentation at the “Ideatorium” conference devoted to academic teaching. We decided to talk about the project “Autoethnography of Study” which Oskar conducted at the University of Szczecin. Instead of describing, we showed what had happened. Or maybe what seemed to us – me, the lecturer and Paulina, the student – what had happened. This is an example of performative autoethnography.
