Teacher stories to improve theories of learner/teacher autonomy

In his article in Issue 42 of Independence Lienhard 
Legenhausen writes “research, theory and practice 
can be said to stand in a triangular relationship in 
which each construct has an impact on and is 
influenced by the other two constructs” (Legenhausen, 
2007: 18). He also says “The ultimate aim of both 
theory and research is to improve control of practical 
issues, which means improving practice” (ibid.). In this 
article I would like to make a case for an influence in 
the opposite direction: practitioners, i.e. teachers, 
taking control and helping researchers and theorists 
improve their work by telling stories.
