Educational Research : An Oral History of Jenny Albrecht
Doug Finch and Allen Walter
Transcript of an oral history of Jenny Albrecht as educational research.
This collection features oral history interviews focusing on one-room schoolhouses in rural Kansas. The last one-room schoolhouse teacher in Kansas, Selola Lewis, is included in this collection. She taught at the Dermot School in Morton county until the final one-room school closed in 1992. Students from the Fort Hays State University College of Education conducted the interviews of former students and teachers who attended and taught in one-room schoolhouses. Interviews were conducted as part of an effort to develop a significant collection of oral resources that would supplement other primary and secondary local history materials residing in the Plymouth Schoolhouse Archival Collection in Forsyth Library and the Plymouth Schoolhouse building located on the FHSU Campus. Interviews were originally recorded on cassette tapes and then transferred to digital media. The files have been edited to improve the user experience through enhanced sound quality and time management. No voice content has been removed or altered. Raw files of the original interviews along with supplemental materials like teacher biographies and district histories are available upon request.
The primary source materials contained in the Fort Hays State University Special Collections
and Archives have been placed there for research purposes, preservation of the historical
record, and as reflections of a past belonging to all members of society. Because this material
reflects the expressions of an ongoing culture, some items in the collections may be sensitive in
nature and may not represent the attitudes, beliefs, or ideas of their creators, persons named in
the collections, or the position of Fort Hays State University.
