About this title

Synopsis

This book provides education professionals with an accessible and actionable guide to using research well in real-world contexts.

Using research evidence to improve education is critically important but often poorly supported. There is little or no guidance for educators and leaders about how to do it well. Through practical examples, school case studies, improvement activities and practice checklists, this book unpacks what using research well involves and shows you how to develop it as an action-based practice within your work. The book’s easy-to-read chapters guide you through the process of: identifying your purpose for using research and finding appropriate research, engaging with the research thoughtfully and implementing it effectively, and modelling and supporting quality research use within your organisation.

Written for teachers and leaders across all stages of education who want to use research evidence better within their work, this is an indispensable addition to the professional library.
