Abstract

This research study looks deeply into two educators’ lived experiences as documenters with children, families and in their contexts. Frank and Larisa’s journeys presented in this research study each offers its own uniqueness and also now intertwines to weave new experiences and bring forth new meaning. As researchers working closely with our co-protagonists, we weave together Latour's (2004) matters of concern through documentation and learning experiences with people and with contextualized places.
