Summary:Affiliating with associations such as the Comparative and International Education Society-whose members include researchers who work for international donor organizations or non-governmental organizations (NGOs)-would help middle level education scholars to broaden their understanding about young adolescent education in settings around the globe. In "Applied Learning and Community Partnerships Improve Student Engagement in Australia," Pridham and Deed present a case study of middle school students who learned about "overlapping and complementary strands of community and economic life" as they ventured into their real-world communities; students learned by being in the contexts and communities where knowledge was applied.
