Ongoing Research Projects
Using ethnography to explore the diverse cultures of Vermont.
How Equity is Actualized: Visions, Practices, and Realities at Vermont Schools is a year-long ethnographic study of the composite trends and obstacles that impact the viability of Act 77. This project collaborates with Vermont educators and students to learn how personalized learning can be used as a tool for creating equity in our schools.
The Vermont Town Schools Project is an effort to create a community-led oral history collection that explores the relationship between small towns and their schools. Based on conversations with community leaders, the Town Schools Project is emerging in the context of recent policy reforms that impact the future of town schools.
Andy has been interviewing a number of Vermont cartoonists to explore how being from - and living in - Vermont informs their work.
