A Synthesis of Funds of Identity Research: Purposes, Tools, Pedagogical Approaches, and Outcomes.

- Abstract
This review illuminates the growing body of funds of identity (FoI) scholarship and explores its contribution to breaking down deficit thinking and enhancing the inclusivity and equity of education. FoI theory aims to complement the funds of knowledge conceptual framework that draws attention to knowledge and competences of minoritized students. FoI theory is distinctive because of its focus on funds that are personally meaningful for students. The concept of FoI and its relationship with funds of knowledge scholarship are described, followed by an analysis of insights from FoI empirical research: (1) methodological tools that researchers have developed to identify students' FoI and (2) pedagogical approaches utilized to connect to students' FoI. Finally, the review offers an examination of evidence that research has yielded for effects that result from making links to students' FoI, and makes recommendations for future work.
