The International Database of Education Systematic Reviews (IDESR.org) contains summary records of published systematic reviews in education and protocols for unpublished reviews and reviews in preparation. During its pilot phase, IDESR is concentrating exclusively on curating systematic reviews in language education. IDESR makes ready access to extant evidence syntheses for researchers, who can use this information to assess the strength of the warrant for any proposed new primary research and/or additional evidence syntheses. By using IDESR to publish review protocols prospectively, review authors commit to high standards of transparency and rigour in producing their research. We have used the data held in IDESR to assess the topics, publication patterns, and reporting quality in the language education literature. We found (i) that language education has seen exponential growth in systematic reviews of research; (ii) that a variety of topics have been addressed, but those related to educational technology have dominated; (iii) that reviews are published in a wide range of outlets, going beyond language education journals; and (iv) that there is room for improvement in the quality of reporting evidence syntheses in language education.

语言教育系统评价中的主题、出版模式和报告质量。国际教育系统评价数据库 (IDESR) 的经验教训

国际教育系统评价数据库（IDESR 网站) 包含已发表的教育系统评价的摘要记录以及未发表的评价和准备中的评价的协议。在试点阶段，IDESR 专注于策划语言教育的系统评论。IDESR 为研究人员提供了现成的综合证据，他们可以使用这些信息来评估任何拟议的新的初步研究和/或额外的证据综合的证据强度。通过使用 IDESR 前瞻性地发布评论协议，评论作者承诺在进行研究时保持高标准的透明度和严谨性。我们使用 IDESR 中保存的数据来评估语言教育文献中的主题、出版模式和报告质量。我们发现 (i) 语言教育在研究的系统评价方面呈指数级增长；(ii) 已经解决了各种主题，但与教育技术相关的主题占主导地位；(iii) 评论在广泛的渠道发表，超越语言教育期刊；(iv) 语言教育中报告证据综合的质量还有改进的余地。
