Abstract
Research and scholarship is about making a unique contribution to your discipline, answering questions, provoking thought, advancing learning and the pursuit of cognitive truth. It is about discovery, integration of knowledge, application of new concepts, and teach- ing. Research and scholarship comes in many forms, each valuable for its ability to contribute to intellectual discourse. Through the reading of this article, I hope you, the reader, will consider how you define scholarship and incorporate nontraditional methodologies into your formal and informal roles in the lives of students. Through Scholarly Personal Narrative I discovered my voice, answered some of the more difficult questions associated with my research and transformed my thinking in the process.
