Grounded in the concept of <em>praxis</em>--thinking informs action and action informs thinking--this book explores a stance of Scholar-Practitioner comprising six qualities that characterize their work in education. Scholar-Practitioners cultivate a reservoir of <em>Pedagogical Wisdom</em> that guides their decisions and actions. <em>Theoretical Understanding</em> and <em>Contextual Literacy</em> support educators as they work at the intersection of complex social and institutional forces. Embracing the qualities of <em>Ethical Stewardship</em> and <em>Aesthetic Imagination</em> empowers Scholar-Practitioners to advocate for the educational well-being of individuals and the profession. Through <em>Metacognitive Reflection</em> Scholar-Practitioners become more than recipients of rational-technical knowledge generated by others; they become sources of wisdom for fulfilling the purpose of education. </p><p> </p><p> </p>
