Spencer+Grant+Proposal

The Spencer Foundation was established by Lyle Spencer in 1962 to fund investigations into the improvement of education worldwide. Lyle Spencer was committed to educational reform. He founded Science Research Associates (SRA), an educational publishing firm, and was known as a business and an educator with a passion for quality in education. Mr. Spencer's contributions to education continue though his establishment of the Spencer Foundation.

Applications for research grants can be directed toward five particular areas of inquiry: education and social opportunity, organization learning, purposes and values of education, teaching,learning, and instructional resources, and field-initiated proposals. I have chosen the area of **//education and social opportunity//**. The completed Grant Proposal attached below includes my vita, a narrative discussion of my dissertation, a personal statement, and proposed budget.
