Quantitative studies that try their best to avoid simplifying complex educational problems - therefore include a lot of preliminary analyses on a wide range of independent variables and thoughtful discussion in the article about how researchers arrived at the final list of independent variables included to try to predict the likelihood of a specific educational outcome

There was a recent article that I read through the journal Urban Review, in which the funds of knowledge of affiliated or known gang-involved youth were investigated. Such a study that explores a population at the margins of research inquiry and challenges known norms about their livelihoods brings me hope that I can follow a similar line of work. The study likewise was written by a junior and senior professor, which holds a spirit of camaraderie not unlike other horizontal traditions in social organizing movements.
