CARDENAS, Melba Libia. The Traces of a First Publication in an English Teacher: A Life Story. Folios [online]. 2019, n.49, pp.161-175. ISSN 0123-4870. https://doi.org/10.17227/folios.49-9403.
This paper focuses on the life story of a teacher who took part in an ethnographic case study that aims to learn, among other things, about the role that English teachers give to the publication of their first paper in an academic or scientific journal in their career. In-depth interviews and documentary evidence were used to gather information. First, the paper presents the conceptual elements that guided the implementation of the narrative approach regarding life stories. Then, it describes the context of the research and the methodological process. Next, and since narrative analysis was chosen, the life story of an English teacher is included, illustrated from his career as a writer. The story shows the role of academic writing and of the publication of their works in the lives of teachers, as well as some implications for fostering an active role in their academic communities.
