Abstract

I promised myself when I decided to write this book that I would not make it theoretical. Using theoretical language in and of itself creates a power dynamic between those with whom you wish to work and those who might identify with the nature of the work you are doing. That said to deny theory would be irresponsible. It would again create the dichotomy between the academy and the field. It would also negate the role of theory in assisting us in analyzing both our position, our presence, and self, moreover the implications each of these and in informing the design of learning.
