The Tacit Knowledge of Productive Scholars in Education by Megan Tschannen-Moran & Nancy Nestor-Baker — 2004This study investigates the tacit knowledge of prolific educational scholars. These scholars were motivated by a clear set of values that led them to make research a priority in the midst of competing demands and to persist through the more tedious or arduous parts of the research process. The participants learned to manage not only their time but also their emotions when coping with the pressures of academic life, the criticism inherent in the peer review process, and the politics of organizational life. They formed collaborative networks for both emotional support and intellectual challenge. By making these knowledge structures more explicit, others may benefit from the thinking behind these scholars' success to improve scholarship in the field.To view the full-text for this article you must be signed-in with the appropropriate membership.
