Educators don’t love the way research is usually presented. Keynotes with lots of references to program data leave them bored. Lengthy reports footnoted with higher education publications go unread. Writing papers for required courses while having to use a particular citation style creates frustration.

Yet it is learning something new that forces change in practice, culture, space, tools, and/or time. We believe that professional study is essential, but we also respect educators’ time and energy. We know there just isn’t time to find the kind of resources you need to inform new thinking and new actions. We know the most effective resources you need may actually often lie inside hallways and learning spaces — yours and others — not in professional print resources.

We can help your staff generate authentic action research using our customizable observation, interview, and learning walk tools. We create professional study websites that serve as asynchronous choice boards educators can read, watch, listen to, and use collaboratively to define their own learning pathways, leading to school communities where teachers and students grow together.
