ABSTRACT
For eons, humans have used stories to share histories, teach important lessons, and give information. Regarding narrative learning, Carolyn Clark (2010) wrote, “To be human is to tell stories” (p. 3). Narrative research communicates moral, cultural, and political perspectives. Interviews and stories have power; they bring emotional and intuitive aspects, as well as rational ones. We experience them visually and emotionally. They can transform. In both teaching and research, we can use personal histories of people engaged in adult and continuing education—their activities, their legacies, their collaboration with others, and their complex interactions.
