EDLI 7605 - Doctoral Research Lab: Urban School Lab

Institution:

University of Colorado Denver

Subject:

Educational Leadership and Innovation

Description:

The USDL is focused on systemic change and problems of practice within urban schools. It is in the intersection of systems change and practice issues that we stake out the territory for our lab: practice informed and supported by systems approaches to improvement and renewal; systems change informed and led by the practitioners who daily work in schools to teach and mentor their students. Through the dynamic interplay of the particular and the context, we hope to unveil the life choices and opportunities for each and every student, knowing that these opportunities and choices are so often complicated by lack of resources, limited expectations of success, and depersonalized classrooms. Knowing the critical role that teachers and other practitioners play in creating opportunities for learning to occur, the work of the USDL explores the issues and challenges that face educators on a daily basis. Prereq: Admittance to the doctoral program or permission of instructor.
