We are a professional organization that bridges between scientific knowledge produced in academia and professional knowledge that evolves through pedagogical practice. The Center collaborates in research-practice partnerships that connect between pedagogical research and the local experience and understanding of practitioners in the field - to enrich points of view, create knowledge and develop resources for teaching and learning. These partnerships spawn opportunities for researchers, educators, and policy makers to learn, hone their craft, and create meaningful impact in the education field. Together we build the education profession.
