[Air-L] Your Opinion

Colleagues, I have hovered in the background for quite some time reading your extremely rich and diverse areas of interest/research. As a K-12 educator/doctoral student I am interested in the connections between higher ed. research and the daily classroom instruction/environment that composes our national educational system. I am compelled to ask this question: In your opinion what do you currently think is the most important area of research or perhaps the most important area "needing" research for our K-12 educational system? Thank you for your help and time, Elaine
