Educational research and policy-making: On-and-off relationships; new developments to be confirmed
Cytermann, Jean-Richard
Educational research and policy-making: On-and-off relationships; new developments to be confirmed - 2019.
60
Many reports have come to the same conclusion: relationships between educational researchers and policymakers or teachers are intermittent. Educational research, unlike health research, does not play a support role for public policy-makers. The lack of visibility of educational research is due to a poorly structured research offering and intermittent demand from public decision-makers. This paper tries to provide a few explanations for this weak demand: sometimes, policy-makers have a negative perception of educational research; in-house sources of expertise are available in addition to research work; policy-makers do not know how to commission research works. However, there have been a few signs of positive development over recent years; these remain to be confirmed in the long term.
