“…Social constructivism is a perspective that can be useful in addressing concepts of the ‘self’ and ‘other’. It is an approach that assumes that understanding the world can be subjective: reality does not simply exist, it is constructed (Dershimer 1991). Social constructivism maintains that people develop their sense of what is real through conversation with, and observation of, others.…”

“…2000). According to the constructivist approach, insights from research are more likely to be multiple, diverse, situational, and non‐universal (Dershimer 1991). Subjective perceptions, personal knowledge, and uncertainty are, therefore, not only valid but also should be expected (Clandinin & Connelly 1987).…”

An exploration of the 'self' is generally considered a fundamental and necessary place from which to commence practice as a mental health nurse. Self-awareness and attention to one's own feelings, thoughts, and experiences can contribute to the therapeutic use of self in effective provision of mental health nursing care. This purposeful use of self, inherent in the role of the mental health nurse, may also be seen as synchronous to the role of the qualitative researcher who seeks to uncover the meaning of others' experiences. Autoethnography is a qualitative research method that connects the researcher's personal self to the broader cultural context. Evocative writing, where the writer shares personal stories on their experiences, is used to extend understanding of a particular social issue. This paper will argue how this emerging method in social science research is of particular relevance to mental health nursing research and practice.

“…Craft knowledge embraces thinking that is intuitive, judgments that lack a rationale and reasoning without consciousness or calculation ( Tanner, 1993). Moreover, craft knowledge of teaching is complex, context specific, personal, and still only partially understood, and therefore invites further exploration ( Carter, 1990; Dershimer, 1991; Marland, 1992; Russell, Munby, Spafford & Johnston, 1988). Few cases of teaching and assessment taking place are available in the literature ( Hyman, 1994).…”

“…More recent research has focused on various aspects of teachers' interactive thinking (Morine-Dershimer, 1990). One of the most influential areas of research has been into teachers' use of schemata and the ways in which this helps to explain differences in the thought processes of novice and experienced teachers.…”

This paper reports preliminary findings of a qualitative study of teachers' and year 7 pupils' perceptions of effective classroom learning in English and in history. The focus of this paper is the extent of commonality between teacher and pupil perceptions. The findings indicate that there is a high level of commonality between teacher and pupil perspectives of what constitutes effective teaching. Of particular interest is the richness of pupils' accounts of the associations between teaching methods and learning strategies. The findings point to the value of constructivist theories of learning.
