The Spencer Foundation seeks to investigate ways in which education, broadly conceived, can be improved around the world. From the first, the Foundation has been dedicated to the belief that research is necessary to the improvement in education. The Foundation is thus committed to supporting high-quality investigation of education through its research programs and to strengthening and renewing the educational research community through its fellowship and training programs and related activities.
The Spencer Foundation's research grants are organized under four areas of inquiry that identify broad topics that have fundamental and abiding importance for educational improvement.
- The Relation Between Education and Social Opportunity
- Organizational Learning in Schools, School Systems, and Higher Education Systems
- Teaching, Learning, and Instructional Resources
- Purposes and Values of Education
