  Oral History and Teachers' Professional Practice: a wartime turning point?
 
 
Title: Oral History and Teachers' Professional Practice: a wartime turning point?
Author: Gardner, Philip
Cunningham, Peter
Appeared in: Cambridge journal of education
Paging: Volume 27 (1997) nr. 3 pages 331-342
Year: 1997-11
Contents: This exploratory article has a two-fold aim. In the first place, it seeks to investigate changing patterns of teacher-pupil relationships in the twentieth century through the lens of the professional lives and pedagogical practices of classroom teachers themselves. Such an investigation is engaged through the application of oral history methods. An unexpected result of a succession of oral history interviews has been the identification, by former teachers themselves, of wartime evacuation as a significant turning point in the development of teacher-pupil relationships. The second aim of the article is to relate the findings of oral history interviews to those which emerge from documentary and secondary sources. In this way, the particular strengths of oral history methods for the investigation of past pedagogical practice are assessed.
