This book offers a comprehensive guide to the impact of professional development schools and school-university partnerships (PDSs-SUPs), articulating both the major issues that confront PDSs-SUPs and the various research methods shaping the field.

Stemming from a national PDS research conference and project funded by the American Educational Research Association, this collaborative effort presents a vision aimed at promoting inclusive, equity-focused research within PDSs-SUPs and delves into the insights of researchers as they examine revitalized perspectives, persistent challenges, and emerging areas of study.

This volume will appeal to scholars, teachers, teacher educators, university students, and education policymakers with interest in social justice in research, teacher education, and P-12 partnerships.

This book has been endorsed by the National Association for School-University Partnerships (NASUP) for its contributions to the field.
