Introduction to the broad tradition of transformative research in education-engaged scholarship that aims to disrupt long-standing educational inequities in partnership with local communities. This tradition includes youth participatory action research (YPAR), participatory design research (PDR), community-based participatory research (CBPR), and other collaborative approaches to inquiry that value diverse forms of expertise and knowledge. By examining the principles and practices that underscore community-engaged scholarship, students are supported in developing the ability to analyze education in social and political context; develop skills for effecting change; and demonstrate understanding of multiple perspectives, diversity, pluralism, and social justice.
