The Kenneth W. Howell Bridging Research-to-Practice Legacy Fund Dr. Kenneth W. Howell dedicated his career to helping educators bridge research and practice in ways that changed what was possible for students. As a scholar, researcher, psychologist, educator, and mentor, Ken called the field to respond to student struggle with evidence, humility, reflection, and action. He reminded us that when a child struggles, our first response should not be blame. It should be responsibility. What can we do differently? How can we improve instruction? What evidence should guide us? What resources are needed? How can we create learning environments where more students experience success? How can we prevent failure before it occurs? Ken taught us to be relentless in our pursuit of student learning &mdash; to keep looking, keep teaching, keep improving, and keep believing in our responsibility to create the conditions where students can learn. The Kenneth W. Howell Bridging Research-to-Practice Legacy Fund honors that enduring vision. Funds raised will help sustain an annual IMA award recognizing individuals who carry Ken&rsquo;s work forward by translating research into practice, strengthening prevention-oriented systems, and improving outcomes for students.You can give directly or support this effort by inviting others to join you. Together, we can ensure Ken&rsquo;s legacy lives on not only in memory, but in the practices, systems, and lives changed because of his work.
