A Conundrum: Perceptions of Gender and Professional Educators during the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries.
Smith, Joan K.; Vaughn, Courtney
Educational Foundations, v14 n3 p5-20 Sum 2000
Examines the careers and ideologies of several women educators throughout history, concluding that the very ideals that justified their entry into education also stalled their journey toward professional status. The experiences of white, African-American, and Native-American women are presented. What emerges is a view of female educators living with ideological inconsistency. (SM)
