Research–Practice Partnerships to Support the Development of High Quality Mathematics Instruction for All Students

Research–Practice Partnerships in Education

“…When key staff turn over, new relationships must be formed, trust rebuilt, and work routines and understandings established. Change in leadership may also come with new goals and priorities that require the direction of joint work to be renegotiated (Rosenquist, Henrick, & Smith, 2015).…”

Research Collaboratives With School Districts: The Potential for Partnerships to Facilitate Enhanced Learning by Students and Enlighten Research Stakeholders

“…We have grouped these articles as early childhood to secondary schools, and college readiness and leadership development. We have both public (e.g., Durham et al, 2015) and private (e.g., Scanlan & Zisselsberger, 2015) schools represented, located in the United States (e.g., Rosenquist, Henrick, & Smith, 2015) and elsewhere (e.g., Parr & Timperley, 2015). Together, practitioners and researchers involved are concerned about raising literacy (e.g., Parr & Timperley, 2015) and mathematics (e.g., Booth et al, 2015) achievement, and also preparing youngsters for postsecondary school readiness (e.g., Durham et al, 2015;Phillips et al, 2015).…”

Decomposition of Practice as an Activity for Research-Practice Partnerships

“…The growth of RPPs in education has been accompanied by research on these collaborative partnerships that disrupts traditional divisions between research and practice. Analyses have investigated complex partnership dynamics (e.g., Akkerman & Bruining, 2016 ; Coburn, Bae, & Turner, 2008 ; D’Amico, 2010 ) as well as the potential of these collaborations to support important change in educational systems (e.g., Donovan, Snow, & Daro, 2013 ; Rosenquist, Henrick, & Smith, 2015 ). Emerging specification of key activities and tasks for RPPs also has aided understanding of how RPPs might effectively engage in particular lines of work to facilitate collaboration and promote shared understanding (e.g., Cobb, Jackson, & Dunlap, 2017 ).…”
