This chapter calls for researchers to reconceptualize research quality from the perspective of its expected use, attending to power dynamics that influence how knowledge is defined, constructed, and validated through the research enterprise. Addressing these concerns when designing and conducting education research can yield more useful research evidence for building more equitable education systems. Anchored in scholarship on research utilization and methodological critiques, the chapter introduces a research quality framework that integrates relevance and rigor through five key dimensions of Research Worth Using: (1) relevance of question: alignment of research topics to practical priorities; (2) theoretical credibility: explanatory strength and coherence of principles investigated; (3) methodological credibility: internal and external credibility of study design and execution; (4) evidentiary credibility: robustness and consistency of cumulative evidence; and (5) relevance of answers: justification for practical application. This framework simultaneously uplifts the voices and needs of policymakers, practitioners, and community members, while elevating standards for excellence in education research. We call attention to the myriad ways in which the quality of evidence generated can be strengthened, before describing implications for curating and using research. We conclude by offering suggestions for applying and further developing the framework.

值得研究使用:(重新)构筑研究证据质量,用于教育政策制定和实践

本章呼吁研究人员从预期用途的角度重新概念化研究质量,关注影响研究机构如何定义,构建和验证知识的动力动力学。在设计和进行教育研究时解决这些问题可以为构建更公平的教育体系提供更多有用的研究证据。在研究利用和方法学批判的学术研究中,本章介绍了一个研究质量框架,该框架通过研究价值的五个关键维度将相关性和严谨性进行了整合:(1)问题的相关性:研究主题与实际优先事项的衔接;(2)理论可信度:所研究原理的解释力和连贯性;(3)方法学信誉:研究设计和执行的内部和外部信誉;(4)证据的可信度:累积证据的稳健性和一致性;(5)答案的相关性:实际应用的理由。该框架同时提升了决策者,从业者和社区成员的声音和需求,同时提高了卓越的教育研究标准。在描述对策展和使用研究的意义之前,我们呼吁注意可以增强产生的证据质量的多种方法。最后,我们为应用和进一步开发框架提供了建议。该框架同时提升了决策者,从业者和社区成员的声音和需求,同时提高了卓越的教育研究标准。在描述对策展和使用研究的意义之前,我们呼吁注意可以增强产生的证据质量的多种方法。最后,我们为应用和进一步开发框架提供了建议。该框架同时提升了决策者,从业者和社区成员的声音和需求,同时提高了卓越的教育研究标准。在描述对策展和使用研究的意义之前,我们呼吁注意可以增强产生的证据质量的多种方法。最后,我们为应用和进一步开发框架提供了建议。
