Sarah Zuckerman, assistant professor of Educational Administration, has published a new study called "Making Sense of Place: A Case Study of a Sensemaking in Rural School-Community Partnership."

Dr. Zuckerman’s research uses qualitative methods to investigate state level educational policy implementation and school-community partnerships, particularly in the context of rural communities. Her recent research combines organizational change theory with concepts from political science to understand how individuals, groups, and organizations mobilize and develop shared understandings that shape action at the school, community, and state policy levels. Her current projects include an ethnographic study of statewide policy network in the area of early childhood workforce and a case study of a rural community coalition to support children and families across school and community settings.
