Under her direction, the Center promotes and supports practitioner inquiry (action research) as a core mechanism for school improvement in schools throughout the state. She began her career in education as an elementary school teacher in Hannibal Central Schools, New York, and has worked closely with teachers and administrators on action research, building professional learning communities, and school-university collaborations in Florida and Pennsylvania since 1990. She has authored numerous articles in professional journals focused on teacher inquiry, as well as a best-selling book (with Diane Yendol-Hoppey) on the action research process from Corwin Press (The Reflective Educator's Guide to Classroom Research).
