Designed for both researchers and practitioners, this book is a
guide to bridging the gap between the knowledge generated by
scientific research and application of that knowledge to
educational practice. With the emphasis on evidence-based practice
in the schools growing exponentially, school practitioners must
learn how to understand, judge, and make use of the research being
produced to full effect. Conversely, researchers must understand
what is being used in "real-world" settings, and what is still
needed.
The editors of this book have outlined this process as a series of
steps, beginning with being a critical consumer of current research
literature, followed by concepts to consider in translating
research into practice: systems issues at local, district, and
state levels; the role of teachers in program implementation;
evaluation of implementation effectiveness, and preservice and
inservice professional development of teachers and psychologists.
Each chapter is written by leaders on the topic, and contributors
include both researchers and school-based practitioners.
With contributing authors from a variety of disciplines, this book
is an invaluable treatise on current understanding of the
complexities of translating research into educational practice.
