Abstract

This manuscript is a fictionalized autobiographical narrative that uses the currere method to critique/explore the intersection of Joseph Campbell's monomyth and curriculum through the lenses of the author's lived experiences as a student, parent, and educator. The inquiry considers how a subjective curriculum focused on self development offers potential for more meaningful learing.
