Research
As a top-tier college of education at a Research I university, Arizona State University’s Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College is bringing its research capabilities to bear on the work of the Next Education Workforce.
In partnership with K–12 districts and schools, MLFTC aims to understand how schools and districts are adopting Next Education Workforce models and how those models are associated with outcomes for both learners and educators. These questions set the direction for a robust research agenda driven by MLFTC faculty and other researchers.
