Abstract

This chapter explores several specific areas of rural schooling and education that are ripe for new research. Positing a regionally defined rurality within a larger rural identity, the chapter focuses on language and discourse in analyzing national narratives regarding rural communities. Agency in research for Native communities and delving deeper into masculinity and sexuality in rural communities are also considered as ways to integrate more diverse communities into the rural research lens. Qualitative, descriptive research is posited as a well-suited research method to address the new directions in research.
