Jerry Rosiek's areas of teaching and research include qualitative research and the cultural foundations of education. His scholarship is focused on developing a set of concepts and research practices that can enhance our understanding of teachers' practical knowledge. These efforts fall into three closely related areas:
1) Documenting the nature and content of the knowledge that enables teachers' to better serve traditionally under-served groups of students. The commitment to promoting social justice in our educational system is at the heart of his work and is its ultimate justification;
2) Exploring the modes of representation needed to adequately represent this knowledge. Currently he is focused on the use of narrative modes of representation;
3) Examining and responding to the epistemological and ideological questions raised by these methodological innovations and this line of inquiry.
