EXPERIENCE AND SELF-CONSTRUCTION

(auto)biographical research contributions for teachers' training

Abstract

This article aims to approach the meaning of the word experience in (auto) biographical research, focused on teacher training, and based on cross-reading texts of three authors. We start on assuming that understanding the theoretical references that support the concept of experience is fundamental for the contributions in person's education to construct oneself through self-knowledge. We understood this concept under theoretical and methodological assumptions of (Auto)Biographical Research according to readings regarding experience, which have echo in the epistemology of Larrosa, Delory-Momberger and Josso. We conclude, trying to establish a cross dialogue approaching the thought of these three authors, that experience in building of oneself is product/producer of (auto)biographical reflection focusing on the understanding of the meaning of singular-plural existence of the historical subject of education.
