The prospects of conducting policy-relevant research -- Summary and reflections. 520 $a Conducting "policy relevant" research remains one of the more elusive quests facing higher education scholars. Yet, it is one of the most important since evidence-based policymaking results in better public policy decisions. But how can this be done? What are some promising practices to help make academic scholarship more policy relevant? This monograph provides strategies that--when addressed--should improve the chances of study becoming relevant to policy audiences. It provides: practical examples, theoretical perspectives, discussions of key stakeholders, and promising research strategies for framing work in policy relevant ways. By being more intentional about the policy relevance of our work and connecting research with emerging policy debates, we can increase the likelihood that future policy solutions will be evidence-based and informed by the most recent and rigorous research in our field. Graduate students and faculty members conducting research in any area within the field of higher education can benefit from this monograph $c -- From back cover. 650 0 $a Education, Higher $x Research. 700 1 $a Tandberg, David A., $e author. 700 1 $a Sponsler, Brian A., $e author. 830 0 $a ASHE higher education report ; $v v. 41, no. 2. 941 $a 1 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20160331011129.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FC3C5826F70511E582760BA0DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
