Examining the experiences of practitioners who have participated in inquiry projects, the authors present ways in which this work has enabled education to be positive change agents. They reveal the difference that practitioner inquiry has made in their professional practice, their understanding of student learning, their content area knowledge, and their career trajectories."--Page 4 of cover.
