Within the context of the Stanford/SFUSD partnership, administrators make requests for research on various subjects. Instead of sharing these summaries of research with one person, we crafted them into blog posts. In general, these posts do not attempt to cover all the research about one topic, but they represent summaries of some of the relevant research related to a topic. In addition, we post summaries here of key initiatives and strategies being implemented to support the partnership.

Stanford GSE announces the 2016-17 Incentive Fund Recipients for projects in SFUSD
August 2016
This is the third year the Stanford University Graduate School of Education (GSE) supported an Incentive Fund for Projects in San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD). The fund supports faculty research that is conducted in the context of a sustained and deep collaboration with SFUSD. Because the district identifies the problems of practice being researched, the research has a high likelihood of having an effect on policies and practice. The collaboration and funding give Stanford’s GSE an opportunity to make a measureable difference in the quality of education experienced by a very diverse population of students.

Blog - Grit, Purpose & Belonging (Stanford SFUSD) —
Blog: Foundational Research on Grit, Purpose & Belonging
By Ada Ocampo
What do we mean when we talk about developing grit, a sense of purpose and a sense of belonging in students, especially in reference to students from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds? In response to this question, this blog focuses in on three seminal works from key scholars in the field. William Damon, a Stanford Professor, focuses his research on the role that "purpose" plays in youth development with implications to fulfillment later in life. Greg Walton, a Stanford Psychology Professor, has dedicated his works in finding interventions to mitigate stereotype threat with a focus on social belonging. Angela Duckworth, a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, is well known for developing the concept of "grit" within the academic context.
