Williams, Kate – Research Evaluation, 2020
How research is assessed affects what types of knowledge are valued, incentivized, and rewarded. An increasingly important element of contemporary research evaluation is the measurement of the wider impact of research (e.g. benefit to society, culture or economy). Although the measurement of impact has been highly contested, the area is…

Paul Howard-Jones; Bethany Woollacott; Camilla Gilmore – Journal of Education for Teaching: International Research and Pedagogy, 2025
We consider what is known about the potential internal processes involved when educators come to use research findings in their classroom practice. We undertook a conceptual review drawing on a range of disciplines, with findings ultimately categorised under six phases regarding research uptake and implementation. This categorisation provides a…

Maxwell, Bronwen; Sharples, Jonathan; Coldwell, Mike – Review of Education, 2022
Models of research use in education tend to focus on specific elements of education systems or underplay the complexity of system change. Within other public policy areas, notably health, more work has been undertaken to integrate systems thinking when considering knowledge mobilisation and research use. In this paper, we survey public policy…

MacGregor, Stephen; Phipps, David J.; Malcolm Edwards, Cathy; Kyffin, Jen; Portes, Virginie – Canadian Journal of Higher Education, 2021
Intentional efforts to advance the societal impacts of research are known as knowledge mobilization (KMb). Despite increasing pressure on researchers and higher education institutions (HEIs) to engage in KMb activities, capacity building in this area is constrained by a limited understanding of the role of HEIs from the perspective of embedded KMb…

Akkerman, Sanne F.; Bakker, Arthur; Penuel, William R. – Educational Researcher, 2021
Educational research is repeatedly confronted with the question of its relevance. Current interpretations of relevance narrowly focus on outcomes and impact of research. In this essay, we propose an alternative, ontological conceptualization of relevance, arguing that more is at stake than outcomes and impact. We characterize the ontology of…

Rachel Abudu; Kathryn Oliver; Annette Boaz – Research Evaluation, 2024
The field of research impact assessment (RIA) has seen remarkable growth over the past three decades. Increasing numbers of RIA frameworks have been developed and applied by research funders and new technologies can capture some research impacts automatically. However, RIAs are too different to draw comparable conclusions about what type of…

Tiffany Berry; Brittany Hite; Michelle Sloper; Haley Umans – American Journal of Evaluation, 2024
The research-to-practice gap describes the well-documented phenomena of researchers and practitioners working in silos, embedded in vastly different contexts. This "cultural divide" has several causes, including ineffective collaboration, inadequate understanding of context, and insufficient dissemination and translation of research.…
