Understanding the Relationship between Research and Teaching

Abstract

This piece was guided by the framing question “How can CEE help its constituencies, the broader public, and policymakers understand the relationship between research and teaching?” The authors consider the usefulness of a range of empirical traditions; explore how expert language arts teachers read, conduct, and use research; and reflect on the role of preservice teacher education in fostering understandings of published research and providing preparation and practice in the conduct of teacher research.
