Accelerating Improvement through Action Research: Lessons from International Schools LIMITED
Sunday March 2, 2025 9:00am - 10:00am PST
ES Theater
Research is essential to design, evaluate, and improve learning, and connecting practical wisdom with systematic tools of inquiry closes the gap between research and practice. Schools want to leverage the latest innovations, accreditation standards often name action research as a school improvement strategy, and school leaders value opportunities to engage with and in educational research. The MLRC is a university-based, research-practice partnership committed to learning about and improving outcomes for multilingual students. This session will feature insights from action research projects designed and implemented at international schools.
