When asked to provide an assessment of the issue, PIBBS editor Susan T. Fiske noted that this issue from ÐÜèÊÓÆµcontains “two exciting trends: first, the role of motivational factors in learning (engagement, trust, hope, autonomy, social-emotional development); and second, some new insights on diversity playing out in schools (role models, student prejudice, equitable discipline, unbiased safety). And there is more (using technology, popular media, and measurement). This is a rich resource for policy-relevant cutting-edge education research.”
As noted on the PIBBS presents original research and scientific reviews relevant to public policy. It aims to enable scientists to share research that can help build sound policies, allow policymakers to provide feedback to the scientific community regarding research that could address societal challenges, and encourage the scientific community to build models that seriously consider implementation to address the needs of society.
