Title
Section I Introduction: Foundations of Improvement Research in Education
Abstract/Description
This introductory section focuses on the foundational ideas of improvement research in education. The ideas are grouped into several broad themes that represent distinct domains of scholarship upon which improvement researchers draw—work, learning, schooling, equity, democracy, and community. These ideas have formed the foundations of the organization and focus of improvement research efforts in education. Each chapter additionally presents how elaboration of its foundational concepts might shape new directions for the field. Such ideas are offered as seeds for generating future lines of inquiry and models for educational change that point in the direction of educational equity and justice.
