Abstract

This year, Division K’s Fireside Chat will provide participants a unique opportunity to dialogue with noted scholars who will directly address the importance of promoting the use of research in order to improve education and serve the public good. Our esteemed panelists have long been committed to improving the lives of students in urban schools. Being true educators, they have touched and changed the lives of many students through their diligence and determination.
