Abstract

This contribution comes from a still ongoing Phd research on the thematic of Embodied teaching and it concerns a specific, methodological turn that occurred during my work. My research project is based on qualitative methods and is related to the field of Embodied Pedagogy. I’ve involved a group of Primary School teachers in a research aimed at exploring their embodied way of teaching, combining a specific somatic approach: Experiential Anatomy, which focuses on the connection between the perception of one's own body and movement. I used auto/biographical methods in order to make visible participants' sense-making processes occurring during the different research stages. After finishing the empiric part of the research, during the data analysis process, I turned into a more embodied dimension, taking a performative perspective. I decided to explore the early emerging results not only through a traditional thematic analysis but also through a more nomadic, embodied way, performing my own narrative reflexivity through a video performance. My hypothesis was that entering in a performative process could help me to see my research from a new perspective.
