Sarah Ruffing Robbins is a Lorraine Sherley Professor of Literature at Texas Christian University.
Robbins pushes the envelope on the normative uses and perspectives
about the Archive, using literal archives of educational practice
recorded in counter-narratives from the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries. Educators will find value in using this book to help
train emerging teachers to be reflective about their practice and
for models of how to use texts, archives, and stories as powerful
teaching tools . . . "" - Timothy K. Eatman, Associate Professor of
Higher Education, Syracuse University, Faculty Co-director
Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life
""[Learning Legacies] combines knowledge about teacher training and
the history of education in the United States gained from extensive
research into many formal archives, numerous site visits, and
interviews with educators, archivists and others. Robbins’s
own autoethnographic reflections also form a crucial and welcome
element of her research."" - Sandra A. Zagarell, Donald R. Longman
Professor of English at Oberlin College and scholar of American
Literature and Culture
