Mission
The
Center for Urban Education is dedicated to supporting school-based research
and reform efforts that focus on the problems and issues confronting urban
schools. Spencer-funded graduate students in the School of Education will
be provided research training opportunities and support based on their
individual interests in urban educational issues, but linked as much as
possible to actual work being done in urban settings and schools. Through
collaborations with urban schools and community-based non-profits, the
Center seeks to support efforts to improve the quality of education available
to students in low-income urban areas. This work is carried out with a
recognition that the problems and issues confronting schools in urban
areas can not be addressed effectively without attention to the social
and economic forces which exert influence upon the lives of children and
families. Graduate students affiliated with the Center are provided training
opportunities through school and community-based research projects. The
Center also serves as a vehicle for building connections and developing
joint research projects, between university-based researchers and school-based
practitioners on reform strategies designed to improve urban schools.
