Education Research as Analytic Claims: The Case of Mathematics
Hyslop-Margison, Emery; Rogers, Matthew; Oladi, Soudeh
Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, v17 n3 p145-151 2017
Despite widespread calls for evidence-based research in education, this strategy has heretofore generated a surprisingly small return on the related financial investment. Some scholars have suggested that the situation follows from a mismatch between education as an assumed field of study and applied empirical research methods. This article's analysis of evidence-based recommendations in mathematics education is based on a critique that evidence-based research recommendations for classroom practice simply advance analytic claims that are conceptually connected to the particular practice under investigation.
