Abstract
This paper explores the elements and research methods of perezhivanie in the context of “teacher growth” by text-mining six literatures that discuss teacher growth based on sociocultural theory, using Voyant tools. The analysis indicated the narrative, stories, and interview as research methods. The elements were emotion/emotions, identity/identities, cognitive/cognition, and social. We then examined the words that co-occurred with those words and discussed why they co-occurred with those words.
