This article uses a comparative historical approach to examine the Teachers for East Africa (TEA) and the Teacher Education in East Africa (TEEA) programs, an influential educational development effort that involved U.S. and British college graduates in East African schools and colleges during the decade of 1961–1971. Drawing on postcolonial theory and Andreas Kazamias’s humanistic view of education, the “Paideia of the soul,” it explores how U.S. teachers interpreted the education system they encountered in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda at the end of the colonial era, seeking to made sense of a radically different system of schooling. The comparison of U.S. and British teachers’ views on pedagogy in this critical historical period as discerned in the TEA and TEAA archive illustrates deep fissures in the putative edifice of “Western” education.

安德烈亚斯（Andreas）前往非洲：东非计划教师的比较历史研究

本文采用比较历史方法来研究东非教师（TEA）和东非教师教育（TEEA）计划，这是一项具有影响力的教育发展工作，涉及十年来东非学校和学院中的美国和英国大学毕业生1961–1971年。借鉴后殖民理论和安德烈亚斯·哈萨米斯（Andreas Kazamias）的人文主义教育观“灵魂的Paideia”，探讨了美国教师如何解释他们在殖民时代末期在肯尼亚，坦桑尼亚和乌干达遇到的教育体系，力求使之有意义完全不同的教育制度。在TEA和TEAA档案中可以看出，在这个关键的历史时期，美国和英国的教师在教学法上的观点进行了比较，这说明了在“西方”教育的假定框架中存在着深刻的分歧。
