Our central contention is that programming can offer a key to resolving the tension between the different representational structures of narrative and mathematical formalism. In the course of describing our approach, we make a distinction between the epistemic-cognitive elements of narrative and the social, cultural and affective elements. We then elaborate the theoretical grounds of the individual epistemic facets of narrative. We propose a link between narrative theories of learning and constructionist traditions, specifically the notion of situated abstraction. This link suggests the possibility of further dialogue between the two academic communities. %G English %2 https://telearn.hal.science/hal-00190369/document %2 https://telearn.hal.science/hal-00190369/file/Mor.Noss.07.pdf %L hal-00190369 %U https://telearn.hal.science/hal-00190369 %~ TELEARN %~ TICE %~ TEL
