"Oh, It Was Different Then!" Case Stories of Unsought Change in the Lives of Three Retired Elementary School Teachers.
Manke, Mary Phillips
Journal of Research in Rural Education, v11 n3 p157-62 Win 1995
Three retired teachers reflect on their teaching careers, which began in one-room schools in Wisconsin, and discuss their reactions to changes involving the educational level and credentials of teachers, curriculum and technology, teacher expectations of students, and community expectations of teachers. Their positive attitudes challenge literature, suggesting teacher resistance to educational change. (LP)
