Supporting and Sustaining Productive Research-Practice Partnerships in STEM

Tue, April 17, 8:15 to 9:45am, New York Marriott Marquis, Floor: Seventh Floor, Chelsea/Gotham Room

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Interest in the potential for research-practice partnerships to address some of the long-standing challenges around the role of research in practice continues to grow. The interest and enthusiasm, however, must be matched by a deeper understanding of how partnerships are established and sustain their work over time; how partnerships respond to changes; how they develop shared research agendas; how to share findings; and what outcomes matter. To help build some knowledge around the work and outcomes of long-term partnerships this session shares findings within and across four quite different research-practice partnerships that vary in size and tenure ranging from a 3-year university-district partnership, to a 13-year partnership with a school district and multiple cultural institutions.
