Chandler Barbour, a retired professor of education, has spent over 40 years in elementary school
teaching, school administration, and university teaching. His strong interests in educational
partnerships for teachers in training and appropriate curriculum for children have led to research and

in Education (1970), AACTE and The Teaching Clinic (1974), Ass'n of Teacher Educators,
plus articles and reports for professional journals in Education. In retirement, Mr. Barbour lives in
coastal Maine and devotes volunteer time to public school projects, church programs, and prison
inmate counseling. He also serves as a board director for a fishing advocacy group, a church facilities
board, and one regional hospital board.

researching and curriculum program development for educational facilities in three states. Her

long interest in the uses of language and the impact of language and culture on education. This interest
has followed her into retirement as a feature of the language literacy programs she has established for
preschoolers in her Maine community. Professor Barbour is a co-author of two earlier textbooks in the
