This cutting-edge book helps educators, researchers, and policymakers unpack the complexity of policy implementation to reveal key conditions and dynamics that determine policy success or failure. By advancing the “predictable patterns approach” to policy implementation, the renowned scholars in this volume provide a collective set of research-based guides to anchor policy design, implementation, evaluation, and improvement efforts. Each chapter synthesizes education policy implementation research from a particular disciplinary perspective—including behavioral economics, micropolitics, Critical Race Theory, social capital, and sensemaking—to define people, place, policy, and interactions among them that predictably lead to certain outcomes. Ultimately, this book positions the next generation of educators and educational researchers to build rigorous and relevant knowledge for the field that can help close policy-practice gaps toward deep and lasting improvement.
