Abstract
It is one of the present problems to establish teachers' groups, namely to reorganize them. With eyes focused on a school where educational practice is actually confronted with educational conditions, the reorganization has to be discussed with considerations to teacher's work in which only a single style of thought of the unified teacher's group may maintain democratic education and improve its efficiency.
The solution, however, is not so easy. Since an actual group consists of teachers who show varied activities, interests and attitudes created by manifold motivations, unification and organization based on a variety of needs turns to be a more important problem than framing a special image of teacher. Viewing social activities through the motivation theory, we must take into consideration modes of social existence, personality and ideology which act as a filter giving various reflections to motivation. From these three points of view, teachers' group, especially its organization is to be studied. In this paper I would like to give a consideration on the general characteristics of teachers' class character (on the one hand a character as laborer, another as office worker on the other hand), their profession and small groups, and seek for some basis for their organization. And here, taking a serious view of the techers' professional roll which has close relations with labor unions and communities in its historical situations, I would like to refer to teachers' ideology, prsonality, especially their role conflict and trace what prevents their group-organization. And finally through Mr. Shiobara's organization theory I would like to emphasize that organization is dynamic and dialectic.
