This volume explores the impact of research?practice partnerships
in education (broadly conceived) on communities in which such
partnerships operate. By invitation, some of the partnerships
celebrated in this volume are firmly established, while others are
more embryonic; some directly engage community members, while
others are nurtured in and by supportive communities. Collectively,
however, the eleven chapters constitute a range of compelling
instances of knowledge utilization (knowledge mobilization), and
offer a counter?narrative to the stereotypical divide between
researchers and practitioners. Educational researchers and
educational practitioners reside in and are both politically
supported and socially sustained by their local communities. The
nesting of researchers' and practitioners' collaborative
decision?making and action in the financial, social,
organizational, and political contexts of the community-together
with the intended and unintended outcomes of those decisions and
actions-speaks to the essence of community impact in the context of
this volume.
