Heidi Wrigley's response to this question took me right back to my involvement
as a practitioner researcher in the Adult Multiple Intelligences project from
NELRC and Project Zero.  We were directly connecting our research and practice
in what became for many of us an ongoing, never ending circle.  Whether there
was a particular question we were investigating, or the more general (and
underlying/overriding one)"how can I be a better teacher," many of us
integrated reflective research, observation, documentation, demonstration,
discussions and so on into our practice. The mindset involved in practitioner
research serves us well in many roles.
