Description

School Counseling Research: Advancing the Professional Evidence Base provides researchers working in school settings with strategies for conducting socially just school-based research. Whether someone is just beginning their scholarship or a veteran of multiple studies, this edited volume provides a wealth of knowledge from experts in the field to equip researchers with the conceptual knowledge and practical skills to conduct rigorous intervention research with schools. A main difference between this text and others is the clear and powerful connection between theory and practice—readers leave with knowledge about how to do the work.

  • Provides a clear and powerful connection between theory and practice
  • Incorporates an anti-racist school counseling lens and social justice approach throughout the text
  • Equips school counselor practitioner scholars and aspiring practitioner scholars with the knowledge and skills (the how) needed to create a research base to support professional school counseling practice
