Session Abstract

Policy oriented research and policy analysis are pivotal to contemporary adult, higher, continuing, and professional education. Practitioners now are required to effectively design and implement policy research and analysis. This presentation will address how anti-bullying policy research can effectively be developed and implemented in adult, higher, continuing, and professional education.

Target Audience

This session focuses on policy oriented research related to anti-bullism in adult, higher, continuing, and professional education. So, the primary target audience for this session should be educators, researchers, adult learners, graduate students, and administrators in higher education and in community settings, counselors, social activists, human resource professionals, and others who are pursuing social justice and equality in their field. In addition, this session would benefit policy makers and scholars in policy studies by helping them gain a better understanding of how constructionist positionalogical policy oriented research can be implemented effectively and appropriately in their field.

Session Description

Policy oriented research and policy analysis are an important part in adult, higher, continuing, and professional education. Faculty, staff, and administrators use various policies daily; however, it is often unclear that how they actually develop, implement, and evaluate their policies. Besides that, there has not yet been a study that deals constructionist positionalogical policy research and its effectiveness for anti-bullying policy in adult, higher, continuing, and professional education. Considering all of those factors, this presentation will provide participants with a relatively new concept of policy oriented research and policy analysis by looking at anti-bullying research.
