The IEL Coalition for Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ (CCS) Research Practice Network (RPN) developed the 2026–2030 Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Research Agenda to guide the next phase of learning, evidence-building, and field advancement. Building on the 2020 agenda, the updated agenda was shaped through an iterative, multi-phase process that included in-person sensemaking with RPN members in May 2025, a network-wide survey in fall 2025, and a targeted review of draft priorities. More than five years of growth in Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ policy, funding, and implementation informed a sharper focus on cohesive frameworks, common measures, and research that directly supports implementation quality, sustainability, and scaling. The agenda reflects shared priorities to strengthen data infrastructure, understand workforce conditions, address persistent post-pandemic challenges, and expand measurement beyond school outcomes to include community-level indicators. Together, RPN members articulated a research agenda designed to produce actionable evidence, support research practice partnerships, and advance outcomes for students, families, schools, and communities.
