Teaching a diverse classroom is a challenging task. Educators are faced daily with the difficult task of making many decisions about how to educate each of their students. To do this, they mainly rely on their experience and that of their colleagues, their values, and thoughts. Although they are inherent and important in the profession of teaching, sometimes these resources may not suffice to make the best decisions, particularly when teachers are continuously bombarded with numerous fads and poorly grounded ideas about education. In this context, research-informed practice emerges as a promising approach. It involves integrating the professional expertise of teachers with the best evidence of researchers to make better decisions and improve education. However, for this approach to be successfully implemented, the gap between researchers and practitioners must first be bridged. The possible solutions to this challenge involve acting in three contexts: research production, research communication and research use. Specific measures in each of these contexts are described.

研究能有助于改善教育实践吗？

教授多样化的课堂是一项具有挑战性的任务。教育工作者每天都面临着就如何教育每个学生做出许多决定的艰巨任务。为此，他们主要依靠自己和同事的经验、价值观和思想。尽管它们在教学专业中是固有且重要的，但有时这些资源可能不足以做出最佳决定，尤其是当教师不断受到众多时尚和教育理念缺乏根据的轰炸时。在这种情况下，以研究为依据的实践成为一种很有前途的方法。它涉及将教师的专业知识与研究人员的最佳证据相结合，以做出更好的决策和改善教育。但是，要成功实施这种方法，首先必须弥合研究人员和从业人员之间的鸿沟。应对这一挑战的可能解决方案涉及在三种情况下采取行动：研究生产、研究交流和研究使用。描述了每种情况下的具体措施。
