Studying Headteachers' Professional Lives: Getting the Life History.
Biott, Colin; Moos, Lejf; Moller, Jorunn
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v45 n4 p395-410 Dec 2001
Focuses on the modes of inquiry used in a study of how Norwegian headteachers frame their personal lives and explores some alternative approaches to analysis, especially of content and form. Results show how explorations of the form and structure of headteachers' life stories raise more complex juxtapositions and questions about the meanings of professional competence. (SLD)
