Abstract | This paper argues that the realities of school restructuring in Canada are experienced and perceived differently among different teachers, by the same teachers at different times, and between teachers on the one hand and students on the other. Realities of restructuring are often divergent and dissonant in nature. No one group has an inherently privileged or inherently superior interpretation of these realities. One cannot properly speak of the teacher's voice, only of teacher voices, and of voices that may vary for individual teachers, depending on time and place. Theoretically, the paper deconstructs the notion of the teacher's voice as something that has been made into a romantic singularity, favorably opposing it to and imposing it upon all other voices. It points to the presence of many different teacher voices and to the existence and importance of other voices as well as those of teachers. Practically, the paper identifies a need to bring together the different voices surrounding schooling: those of teachers, students, and parents alike. (Contains 55 references.) (Author/JDD) |
