image that was inherent at the teacher training colleges in Finland
during 1921 to 1945. It also points out what kind of pedagogical
philosophies influenced the foundation of the Finnish school
system. The book provides a historical point of view of teaching at
the teacher training colleges and introduces the pedagogical
methods which were used. The focus is on a teacher training college
for women, located in Northern Finland, Tornio.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of Sami education in a
historical and internationally comparative perspective. Despite the
cross-national character of the Sami population, academic
literature on Sami education has so far been published within the
different nation states in the Sami area, and rarely in English.
Exploring indigenous educational history around the world, this
collection spans from Asia to Oceania to Sapmi and the Americas.
The chapters frame Sami school history within an international
context of indigenous and minority education. In doing so, two
narrative threads are established: both traditional history of
education, and perspectives on the decolonisation of education.
This pioneering book will appeal to students and scholars of Sami
education, as well as indigenous education around the world.

The purpose of this book is to provide a special viewpoint on the
development of the Finnish school system and teacher education.
Understanding the success of today requires information about the
past. The book covers the history, ideological background, and
development of Finnish teacher education from the 19th century to
today. The historical review uses a northern Finnish teacher
training college of Tornio as the example. This book provides
interesting information about the ideological foundation of the
first teacher training colleges, description of how the ideology
was applied in the practice of teacher training, and how students
were selected for teacher training. The development of teacher
training faced certain hardships too. What happened in Finnish
society since the establishment of teacher training colleges in the
second half of the 19th century affected Finnish teacher training
significantly. The book brings out the special circumstances in
Finland at the beginning of the 20th century focusing on the war
years of 1939-1945.
