Abstract/Notes: This paper discusses the implications of using life history methodology in teacher research. By examining teachers’ life stories within a cultural and historical context the researcher and teacher, in collaboration, construct a life history. Biographical material based on the personal and professional aspects of being a teacher were collected from eight Montessori teachers in Sweden. Empirical data included interviews, diaries, written narratives and discussions. Theoretical and philosophical issues raised in conjunction with the biographies included counterconcepts such as traditional educational theory/critical reflection and continuity/change within the profession. Specific issues were raised in regard to students, parents, the work situation, etc. Valuable insights were gained concerning the changing roles of teachers in contemporary educational contexts. The voices and visions of teachers should thus be able to contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of the teacher and by so doing lead to improvements within the profession as a whole.

Abstract/Notes: Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 2 – Discussions of progress in education are to feature the sixty-fourth annual convention of the Wisconsin State Teachers' association, which assembled in this city today for a three-day session. A large attendance and an attractive program combine to give promise of one of the most successful conventions in the history of the organization. The sessions were opened in the auditorium this morning with a discussion of the topic, "A Decade of Progress in Wisconsin Education," led by President Van Hise of the state university. Other noted speakers to be heard at the several sessions include Mme. Maria Montessori, originator of the Montessori kindergarten method; Dr. John B. Finley, state commissioner of education of New York; Dean L. D. Coffman of the University of Minnesota, and Dr. Henry S. Pritchett, president of the Carnegie fund for the advancement of teaching. // See: Montessori, M. (1917). The Children of the World, with Special Reference to the American Child.
