Rendering their experiences as short stories from the field of teacher education brings a dimension of social biography to scholarship. As creative nonfiction, these stories act as catalysts to understand teacher culture from first- person accounts. Their stories may be described as openings: Ruths unfolding; Anns unexpectedness; and Nathalies uncertainty. Such narratives are exemplars of arts research, extending the purpose, intent, outcomes and dissemination of research by making scholarly study a more intimate and personal experience through the lives of student-teachers. Entering research practices with a perspective that stories are effective teaching tools that represent cultural artefacts, these stories help make sense of practices in public schools and in postsecondary teacher training, and help students, teachers and teacher educators to better understand the operations of the educational system. Unfolding the Unexpectedness of Uncertainty can be used as case studies for undergraduate and graduate students and academic researchers in fields of study involving creative nonfiction and life writing, such as Education, Creative Writing, English, Womens Studies, Social and Cultural Geography, Sociology and Integrated Studies. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Women art teachers|zCanada|vFiction. 650 0 Women art teachers|xTraining of|zCanada|vFiction. 650 0 First year teachers|zCanada|vFiction. 650 0 Creative nonfiction, Canadian. 650 7 FICTION|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 Droit.|2eclas 650 7 Sciences sociales.|2eclas 650 7 Sciences humaines.|2eclas 650 7 Creative nonfiction, Canadian.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01764187 650 7 First year teachers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00925790 650 7 Women art teachers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01177155 651 7 Canada.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204310 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Fiction.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423787 776 08 |iPrint version:|aSinner, Anita, 1967-|tUnfolding the unexpectedness of uncertainty.|dRotterdam : Sense Publishers, ©2013|z9789462093546|w(OCoLC)860809566 830 0 Social fictions series. 914 ocn863388773 994 92|bGTK
