Abstract
The chapters in this section collectively contribute to a body of work defined by its renewed focus on understanding the contextual and contingent nature of learning—work that also calls for, directly or by implication, a new model of interventionist research designed to improve the educational circumstance of underserved youth, notably students from nondominant communities. I will say more about this point shortly. Of significance, I believe these chapters address conceptual and methodological challenges encountered in carrying out thoughtful empirical work on learning across spaces and contexts.
