Synopsis

This edited volume broadens the discussion on Research-Practice Partnerships (RPPs) in education by extending the focus beyond the US context, providing an in-depth exploration of an RPP designed to enable partnering schools to evaluate and understand pedagogical processes or practices through engagement in school-based research.

Integrating current literature, case studies depicting RPP dynamics, and research findings, this book demonstrates how RPPs transcend traditional boundaries, bring together diverse educational stakeholders, and expand perspectives to inform educational practices and policies. In addition to providing a theoretical review of the RPP framework and its application in the field of education, the chapters present several case studies that address key aspects of school partnerships, including collaborative development, role formation, conflict resolution, and more. This book ultimately supports a broader understanding of the RPPs’ workings and dynamics through unique perspectives from academic faculty members and practitioners.

Contributing to a more conceptual understanding of RPPs that paves the way for transformative advancements in educational research, this book will appeal to researchers, scholars, and postgraduate students interested in RPP research and practice, and teachers and teacher education more broadly. Policymakers and third-party organizations considering how to create, shape, and fund new RPPs may also find this book of use.
