Abstract
In this special issue of Brock Education: Journal for Educational Research and Practice, we build on the knowledge mobilization (KMb) discourses initiated by the Ontario Ministry of Education (MOE), Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), Knowledge Network for Applied Education Research (KNAER), Canadian Society for the Study of Education (CSSE), and School District-University Research Exchange (SURE) network. We feature five journal articles and a book review addressing the three main KMb questions: How to assess KMb efforts across educational systems? To what extent do educators use research to inform their praxis? How to make KMb work?
Highlights

Building on the progress of the previous symposia, the 2016 Networking & Partnerships: The Core of Achieving Excellence in Education symposium focused on researcher-practitioner collaborations toward an accessible, integrated, and responsive education system
Since 2008, SchoolBoard-University Research Exchange (SURE) has focused on developing and sustaining an active collaborative relationship among universities and school districts in the London Region to inspire a culture of inquiry, advance research skills, and promote knowledge exchange related to education research
