This first-of-its-kind text explores the Ed.D. program as a
crucible for equitable higher education and community leadership.
It was inspired in part by the Carnegie Project on the Educational
Doctorate (CPED) and, more broadly, by widespread international
interest in the power of the Ed.D. as a force for positive social
change. The book's range of cultural contexts and educational
perspectives promises new insights and solutions for policy
analysts, policy makers, executive administrators, faculty
researchers, philanthropists, and policy beneficiaries. In contrast
to the traditional Ph.D., the Ed.D. typically attracts educational
practitioners within school boards, government agencies,
non-governmental organizations (NGOs), as well as standalone or
internationally linked community associations. The greatest
attraction of the Ed.D. is an assessment strategy that encourages
graduate students to incorporate their own cultural and
professional contexts into a capstone project instead of producing
a classic dissertation. This book features inclusive language,
highlights everyday expressions from minoritized cultures, and
clarifies new concepts to accommodate new scholars and English
Language Learners. Readers will discover representative research on
Ed.D. policy and practice from the United States, Canada, and a
sprinkling of other countries. Renowned and emergent researchers
represent multiple roles within the Ed.D. education process.
Individual chapters contrast historical and contemporary issues,
and raise awareness about many complexities and strategies that
make the Ed.D. an ideal engine of professional empowerment and
social justice leadership.
