• TITLE: The Art of Collaborative Autoethnography: Exploring the Evolution of a Self-Organizing, Non-Traditional Doctoral Cohort

  AUTHORS: Ashley Gleiman, Davin Knolton, Kevin Mokhtarian

  KEYWORDS: Collaborative Autoethnography, Self-Organizing Systems, Adult Development, Non-Traditional Doctoral Student

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Access Library Journal, Vol.2 No.6, June 30, 2015

  ABSTRACT: Using collaborative autoethnography methods, this article presents the exploration of three non-traditional doctoral student’s journey as they evolved into a self-organized cohort. Individual processes involving self-authorship, self-observation, personal reflections and analysis, combined with group dialogues and conversations about the experience lead to a formed sense of community amongst the researchers. Composite themes develop through a collaborative analysis of individual personal narratives highlighting significant learning experiences, adult development considerations, and the culturally adaptive nature of non-traditional doctoral students that often remain unexamined in other methodologies.
