Abstract

Abstract: Based on concrete examples, the authors demonstrate the gap between research and educational policy in Québec. Educational choices are too often based on ideological fads, even though intellectual, economic and ethical reasons point to the need for rigorous evidence-based strategies, specifically for prior testing and systematic evaluations during and after policy implementation. This article focuses on the wealth and relevance of research needed for developing sound educational policy — policy that avoids the pitfalls of demagogy and common sense and does not leave the achievement of results and their interpretation to chance.
