WARDE, Mirian Jorge  y  ROCHA, Ana Cristina Santos Matos. Feminization of school teaching and masculinization of educational command: studies at Teachers College, Columbia University (1927-1935). Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.70, pp.35-50. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.58725.

Although the school teaching became feminized from the middle of the 19th century onwards - in practically all Western countries - the highest administration posts and the intellectual conduction of public instruction remained predominantly masculine. In this article, first we briefly approach the historiography that informs us about the feminization processes of primary teaching in the United States and Brazil. Next, we focus on Teachers College at Columbia University, an institution that was initially created with a focus on women and, passed, in short time, to male control. Finally, we present cases of Brazilian women and men who studied at Teachers College between the 1920s and 1930s and who, in their trajectories, express the unequal conditions of professionalization and career advancement.
