research for teachers

Bringing teachers and research together

Welcome to Research for Teachers (RfT). A team from the Centre for the Use of Research and Evidence in Education (CUREE) has appraised, selected and summarised one or more published research studies and presented teacher case studies to illustrate the findings.

We are selecting research that, in our view:

• illuminates the complex tasks involved in teaching
• enables teachers to see clearly whether there are links with their own pupils and practice, and what these are
• provides detailed information about the particular teaching and learning processes in classrooms with which teachers can identify
• is written and presented as accessibly as possible, in case teachers want to obtain and read the original text.

Research for Teachers was previously known as Research of the Month (RoM).
