简介

Robert Donmoyer received both a Ph.D. in Education and an M.A. in Political Science from Stanford University. Throughout his career he has explored the use—or, often, the lack of use—of research and evaluation findings in policymaking and practice. One line of research-utilization-related inquiry has involved developing and experimenting with a variety of innovative research and research-reporting strategies designed to increase the utility of research for practitioners and policymakers. The substantive focus of his experimentation with different modes of doing and reporting research has, more often than not, been educational leadership and educational reform. In recent years he also has focused on the nonprofit and philanthropy sector, especially this sector.
