Education Reform

In the area of Education Reform, researchers explore professional learning for teachers and school leaders, how educational innovations influence teacher practice, and how teacher practice influences student learning. Specific areas of study include teacher learning in online professional development (see Matsumura), general teacher learning (see Petrosky), and improvement science for education reform (see Schunn).

Additional topics include how mindfulness can improve academic achievement (see Galla), how policy and educational reform initiatives can improve student learning (see Correnti), and the use of networked improvement communities to effect large-scale change in education (see Iriti).
