One of the most pressing topics worldwide is how we can improve education to enhance people’s life chances. The BERA-Sage Handbook of Research-Informed Education Practice and Policy, 2 Vol. offers an in-depth exploration of the ways in which education research intersects with and can lead to improvements in education. Through detailed examinations of educational policies, practices, values, and research methodologies, the handbook navigates the complexities inherent in educational systems and in so doing presents a unique new picture of education worldwide.

Volume One of the Handbook set focuses on Understanding Research-Informed Education, and Volume Two focuses on how to implement it. Across six parts and fifty-two chapters, the authors and editors explore a myriad of critical topics including using research to promote equity within education systems, rethinking pedagogy, and knowledge mobilisation through practitioner-led inquiry. New developments in aspects such as systematic approaches to research synthesis are presented by world-leading experts.

Authors of the chapters draw from many different sources to provide a comprehensive understanding of education, including perspectives from the arts, humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences. This understanding combines cutting-edge education research and scholarship to provide insights into how education is enacted in countries and institutions through policy and practice.

Featuring a truly diverse team of scholars to account for global perspectives, the BERA-Sage Handbook of Research-Informed Education Practice and Policy, 2 Vol. is an invaluable resource for scholars, researchers, students, and practitioners who are interested in the new frontiers in education research, policy and practice.

Über Autor(innen)

Baumfield, Vivienne Marie
I am Professor of Pedagogy, Policy and Innovation in the School of Education and my teaching and research focuses on the role of inquiry in teachers’ professional learning.  I am interested in the role of universities, and teacher educators in particular, in the creation and translation of knowledge about teaching and learning.  This interest is linked to the wider issue of the relationship between theory and practice in  professional development.
