Conducting research is just the first of many steps

The University of Delaware’s College of Education & Human Development (CEHD) is committed to contributing to a robust continuum between research and practice. We emphasize the interaction between theory, research and practice in all of our work. Education and human development research produces knowledge to inform practice, but research must also be informed by the issues, needs and concerns of practitioners.

We believe the most promising innovations come from interdisciplinary perspectives and want to ensure that the next generation of scholars benefits from interdisciplinary learning. Moving beyond the typical academic research silos, our CEHD faculty work with each other and with faculty across the university in health, arts and sciences, information and computer sciences, public policy, sociology, psychology, and many other areas to address critical issues in education and human development.

Listed below are noteworthy publications by our faculty, featuring their ongoing efforts to advance knowledge and discover solutions to the social challenges we face.

Improving Teacher Diversity

Drawing on research and interviews collected during a year of observation in an urban high school, assistant professor Roderick Carey builds a theoretical framework around what he calls “missing misters” that seeks to grapple with what black and Latino boys “miss” by having few male teachers of color.

Talent Matters for School Turnaround Plans

New research by Gary T. Henry has demonstrated that the key to implementing successful reform in low-performing schools is hiring and retaining effective principals and teachers. This study points to the importance of focusing on talent management when planning and implementing reforms.

Rough Draft Math

In her new book, UD professor Amanda Jansen argues for a new kind of mathematics instructional approach that emphasizes problem solving as an iterative process. Sharing unfinished “drafts” and revising emerging ideas provide opportunities for students to change their approach to solving a problem.
