(2004). The nuts and dolts of teacher images in children’s picture storybooks: A content analysis. Education, 125, 41-55. Sample/ Population 62 children’s books and 96 images of teachers (Titles provided) Purpose How are teachers portrayed in the narratives and images found in children’s storybooks? Hypothesis – a propensity of images painting teachers in an unflattering light may have broader consequences on cultural perceptions of teachers and schooling. Children’s storybooks are not benign. Procedure/ Methodology/Study Type Qualitative – Ethnographic content analysis Variables/Instrumentation/ Definitions Findings Research Parameters – Teacher representation based upon: appearance, language, subject, approach, and effectiveness. Absence of data also noted. Inter-rater used to validate findings. Ethnographic Content Analysis – requires a reflexive and highly interactive relationship between researcher and data with the objective of interpreting and verifying the communication of meaning (34). Apprenticeship-of Observation – images and stereotypes acquired from a person’s experience with literature and media (33). Inter-rater – Professional who works independently of other researchers to validate findings (35). • Teacher in children’s picture storybooks is overwhelmingly portrayed as a white, non-Hispanic woman. • The teacher who is sensitive, competent, and able to manage a classroom effectively is a minority. • The teacher is static, unchanging, and flat. • Teacher is polarized. • Teacher does not inspire the pursuit of critical inquiry (32 – 36). “If those images children and parents see of ‘teacher’ are generally negative, then they will create a ‘world view’ of ‘teacher’ based upon stereotype” (33). “Teachers cannot effectuate positive change in their profession unless and until they are aware of the internal and external influences that define and shape the educational institution” (37). Children’s book list is provided. Detailed report on findings with specific titles used as examples. Limitations Further Research Abstract and purpose was multifold and at times disjointed. Appeared to be strong predisposition toward finding negative stereotypes before research is completed. How are educators portrayed in more advanced literature or in other cultural media genres? Do teachers in other countries face the same stereotyping? What has been the progression over time of teacher images? Promising related references:
