Research Brief on Power Relations in Inquiry-Oriented Classrooms

Relating Research to Practice is a website that contains a set of research briefs summarizing recent peer-reviewed educational research. James Forrest from the Exploratorium in San Francisco recently wrote a research brief on an article from my PhD research about power dynamics in inquiry-oriented classrooms. Relating Research to Practice is a National Science Foundation funded project that is led by the Exploratorium through collaboration with researchers affiliated with the Center for Informal Learning and Schools (CILS) at the Exploratorium, the Learning in Informal and Formal Environments (LIFE) Center at the University of Washington, King’s College London, and the Afterschool Alliance. Follow the link below to check out the research brief!
