The Foundational Handbook on Improvement Research in Education is a pathbreaking effort to build a field of research committed to producing the practical knowledge needed to advance educational access, quality, and equity. This is research distinguished by the use of inclusive, iterative approaches to analysis, design, implementation, and evaluation to understand and address educational opportunities, needs, and problems grounded deeply in school and community contexts. Designed for researchers, students, and educators, the handbook elaborates the intellectual foundations, explores the organizational and policy contexts, reviews approaches, and examines methods of improvement research. It features contributions from a plural community of researchers with expertise in the learning sciences, instructional improvement, organizational and policy studies, and research methodologies, many with extensive experience collaborating with teachers, leadership, families, and advocates in local problem solving and design.

Grounded in research and theory about what it means to study and radically transform practice, this is a book for any of us who refuse to maintain an inequitable status quo. An edited volume with a seamless analytic core, authors remind us why the work of improvement research cannot wait. As practitioners build new knowledge, mindsets, attitudes, dispositions and skills during increasingly challenging times, this book should be on the bookshelf of every educator, community organizer, politician and policymaker concerned about what it takes to co-construct opportunity centered practices and policies. Building on the best of what we know from empirical research about studying practice for design, new questions are raised and innovative strategies and tools are advanced and amplified. This book addresses a delicate, complex interplay between the individual and the institutional – it teaches as it traverses.
