Abstract:
More than twenty prominent scholars examine education research and discuss how it is changing and where it needs to go. They highlight some of the major trends that have galvanized the field, including removing research from the laboratory to the school site, qualitative research as a widely validated method, and the increasing interdisciplinary aspect of educational research.
