Deeper Learning Journal of Practice (DLJP), a peer-reviewed, annual, online journal, builds bridges between practice and research and among P-20 educators. DLJP’s goal is to increase deeper learning for all. Authors detail and analyze how they implement a practice that forwards deeper learning outcomes.
Deeper Learning Outcomes
Thinking carefully/critically and creatively for challenge-solving
Acquiring and being able to use knowledge
Working collaboratively and independently
Communicating effectively
Social-emotional competencies
Learning and living self-agency
DLJP agrees with Cochran-Smith & Lytle (2009) and Comber (2005); the dichotomy of inquiry and practice, of being a researcher or being a practitioner, is false. Highly effective educators, in any role, P-20, use a collection of theories from others and developed from practice, as they continuously invent and re-invent their practices.
