Abstract

The proposal of this paper is to know how students make curriculum through lived experience at school. By means of a narrative inquiry, we delve into the meaning that three high school students give to lived experience at school and how they construct knowledge. Information has been gathered through observation and interviews. Results and discussion address three themes: knowledge is built narratively from lived experience; students’ stories are continuous, thus we shouldn´t focus only on their experience at school but we have to listen their whole story; given that every person makes his/her own story, curriculum making becomes an interconnected and multistoried process. The study concludes by showing curriculum as a composition of stories constructed in relation by teachers and students.
