title: Narrative pedagogy: rethinking nursing education.
abstract: Narrative pedagogy is an interpretive approach to teaching and learning that is being used to foster educational reform. As it pertains to nursing education, narrative pedagogy is an approach to thinking about teaching and learning that evolves from the lived experiences of teachers, clinicians, and students. In this article, the author reviews the philosophical underpinnings of narrative pedagogy, provides examples of how narrative pedagogy can be used to rethink the teaching of nursing knowledge and practice, and discusses the strengths and limitations of narrative pedagogy as an alternative approach to teaching and learning.
