Abstract
The legal provisions of the second half of the 19th century prescribed a teachers’ meeting to be held at least once a year at the level of the county area under the chairmanship of the county school superintendent. Such meetings were organized for the purpose of professional development of teachers. Teachers’ assemblies are a place where didactic, pedagogical, disciplinary and material issues were discussed, and practical demonstration lectures on school subjects were also held occasionally.
By applying the hermeneutic discourse, this paper investigates the activity of the teachers’ assembly in the framework of the Križevci County during the second half of the 19th century.
The paper analyses the discussions and resolutions of the teachers’ assemblies of the historical Križevci County held in the period from 1876 to 1881. For the purposes of this research, the contents of pedagogical periodicals and reports of assemblies published in Napredak magazine are analysed.
