The Comprehensive Educator Research Program

Le résumé fourni par la source

This chapter explores the origins and outcomes of the Comprehensive Educator Research Program (CERP), a school-wide initiative that structures and sustains teacher-led inquiry through layered supports, mentorship, and collaboration with university faculty. By tracing the historical roots of action research and its principles of reflection, collaboration, and autonomy, the chapter highlights its role in professionalizing teaching and strengthening teacher voice. Case studies from CERP illustrate how educators investigate classroom challenges, develop data literacy, and disseminate findings through conferences and publications. Outcomes reveal growth in teacher agency, confidence, and professional identity, as well as school-wide cultures of inquiry. Lessons learned emphasize the importance of teacher choice, administrative support, mentorship, and institutional structures to sustain and scale such initiatives. Ultimately, the chapter underscores action research as a transformative tool for both individual and systemic educational improvement.
