Research

School-Unviersity Partnerships. I am interested in how to establish school-university partnerships and how to maintain them once established. Included in this interest are issues of the value of school-university partnerships, elements comprising strong partnerships, and how to improve them. Currently, I am particularly interested in a professional development program developed within the Institute for Educational Inquiry, Seattle, WA, for school-university partnerships, which has become known as the "Associates Program."
Moral Dimensions of Teaching. I am interested in the moral dimensions of teaching as identified by Dr. John Goodlad and his associates. Included in this interest are issues of how to help people develop a deeper understanding of the moral dimensions and then to use that understanding to make applications in their work for the benefit of both adults and children
Professional Development. I am interested in the elements of highly effective professional development. Included in this interest are issues of identifying content, process, and context for optimal professional development. I am interested in the types of professional development that have the best chance of bringing about and sustaining change in student learning.
