Research, practice, and implications for careers are topics in focus for December on SAGE MethodSpace. Find the unfolding series of posts through this link.

MethodSpace has featured scholar-practitioners, independent scholars, and citizen scientists who are using their research findings to improve practice in their respective fields. They help to illustrate our focus this month on Research and Practice.
These posts describe their efforts to teach, train, and consult with students and professionals. As you can see, some of these researchers’ work was highlighted in the October 2018 series on Research for Good, pointing to the priority for real impact common to these MethodSpace contributors.
