Identity in Transition: Narrative Repair for Changing Times

Conclusion

Unwanted change is a human experience not specific to class, age, or school location. It cracks the stability of everyday routine and shakes the comfort of what we know. Too often, the threat of damaged identities is cast aside for more concrete solutions or ignored in the face of pressing academic needs. I hope I’ve demonstrated here that identity during changing times deserves attention in the classroom. The research, strategies, and activities in this unit offer ways to shore up student identities now and serve as longer-term reminders of the great wealth that’s already inside our students.
