Direct linkReinking, David; Yaden, David B., Jr. – Reading Research Quarterly, 2021
In this commentary, we argue that literacy research would be more productive if researchers had a clearer, more nuanced understanding of theory. Specifically, we argue that theory in a practice-oriented field is most fundamentally productive when it provides instrumental guidance for literacy beyond academic understanding about literacy. Premises…

The question of how education research can be 'useful' is an enduring and challenging one. In recent years, this question has been approached by universities through a widespread 'impact' agenda. In this article, we explore the tensions between usefulness and impact and present six stories that reflect on research use with communities. These…

Reynolds, Dan – Reading Research Quarterly, 2021
The demand for evidence-based instructional practices has driven a large supply of research on adolescent literacy. Documenting this supply, Baye, Inns, Lake, and Slavin's 2019 article in "Reading Research Quarterly" synthesized far more studies, with far more rigorous methodology, than had ever been collected before. What does this mean…

Reay, Diane – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2020
This paper attempts to work on a number of different levels. Firstly, it comprises my personal reflections on a career in sociology of education. These reflections are entwined with a history of the discipline that emphasises themes of power, politics and pragmatism. This subjective, and inevitably partial, account is combined with an examination…

Klingbeil, David A.; Collier-Meek, Melissa A. – School Psychology, 2020
As early career scholars, we have benefitted from the recommendations made by Conoley and Gutkin nearly 25 years ago. Our training and applied experiences were closely aligned with Conoley and Gutkin's view of school psychology practice. Namely, the content of our courses and our practice of psychology in practicum and internship were reflective…

Mazzaferro, Gerardo – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2022
Translanguaging has now become central to a sociolinguistics that foregrounds globalization and mobility as key concepts for grasping human beings' capacity to engage with and draw on both multiple linguistic -- including named languages -- and semiotic resources dynamically and in combination for the purpose of meaning-making (García, Ofelia…

Gill, Michele Gregoire – Educational Psychologist, 2021
The disconnect between educational theory and practice is problematic for our field. The purpose of this commentary was to explore how that disconnect is being addressed in current research on teachers' social-emotional characteristics and their relation to student outcomes. Three questions framed the analysis underlying this review: What do we…

Hoggan, Chad; Kloubert, Tetyana – Adult Education Quarterly: A Journal of Research and Theory, 2020
This is a response to "The Ethical Knower: Rethinking Our Pedagogy in the Age of Trump" by Elana Michelson. We appreciate Michelson's critical evaluation of the appropriateness of transformative learning and the use of personal narrative, as well as the frames and tools she offers to help us deal with current challenges such as…

Jickling, Bob; Blenkinsop, Sean – Canadian Journal of Environmental Education, 2020
The first climate change conference was held in 1979 in Geneva and sponsored by the World Meteorological Organization. Since then there have been many other initiatives and accords along the way. Each report appears to present an evermore grim picture than the previous one. Cumulatively, we have had more than enough science to know what to do, and…

Conaway, Carrie – Education Finance and Policy, 2020
Research influences policy more often than much of the academic community thinks, and more frequently every day. But its influence is less linear than researchers expect, and it is driven as much by relationships and organizational capacity as by the actual information studies produce. Research use operates through conversations, not code;…

Price, Linda – Psychology of Education Review, 2019
The significance of Noel Entwistle's paper lies in the fundamental question raised regarding the purpose of research into higher education. The article eloquently charts the development of research into student learning and its contribution to the field of educational psychology, but what has been the impact in terms of improvement into the…

Broadfoot, Patricia – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2017
The focal paper by Baird et al. in this special issue argues that there are few issues more important in education than the relationship between assessment and learning. On the one hand, learning is the ultimate goal of all educational interventions; on the other, assessment has become a leviathan that constrains and shapes virtually all of that…

George Grob presented the fifth and final Eleanor Chelimsky Forum address at the 2017 annual meeting of the Eastern Evaluation Research Society.
