Exploring the Impact of the Dissertation in Practice significantly
contributes to our understanding of the design and impact of the
Dissertation in Practice, the capstone of professional practice
doctoral programs. Chapter authors are to be commended for sharing
with the reader a broad and reflective view of their dissertation
journey, and as a consequence give the reader insight into the
nature of professional practice doctorate education in the early
21st century. Readers have the opportunity to hear firsthand how
the dissertation is changing not only in format but also in the
impact it makes in the field. Faculty and program graduates share
accounts of their scholarly practice; the problems of practice that
they have encountered and addressed in their professional practice;
and their evolving role as change agents in their field of
practice. In the process, they assist all faculty involved in
designing and evaluating professional practice programs by
identifying challenges and opportunities for construction of
powerful end?of?program doctoral work. Individually and
collectively chapter authors reflect on their experiences in
creating practice?anchored and intellectually rigorous Dissertation
in Practice. The editor, Dr. Valerie A. Storey, has divided the
book into two sections. The first focused on reflections of faculty
and the second on reflections of program graduates as they describe
how the Dissertation in Practice process develops scholarly
practitioner graduates capacity to lead systemic reform.
