Make sense of the research: A primer for educational leaders
Education research is abundant. How can school leaders use it responsibly?
Who on the front lines of schooling has time to delve deeply into education research? The answer is obvious — hardly anyone. Most state, district, or school leaders simply cannot afford to do so, given the many other pressing needs they face every day. I plead as guilty as the next. I distinctly remember the 35 minutes I spent looking at real research (data on the impact of Florida’s investments in Advanced Placement instruction) while serving as New York State’s education commissioner from 2009 to 2011.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
