Abstract

Social Work educators can help students to develop greater sensitivity to the themes and issues arising in their practice with clients from other cultures through reflective examination of the stories people tell about themselves and others. Narrative analysis is based on the theory of social constructivism and provides a framework for understanding patterns of meaning as seen in life histories, case studies, and biographical materials. Its use in teaching social work practice stimulates greater awareness of shared values and strengthens students’ preparation for professional practice in multicultural communities.
