They investigate how students learn, the effectiveness of different teaching methods, and the impact of educational policies. Their work often involves collecting and analyzing data from classrooms, schools, and educational programs. These researchers may focus on specific areas such as curriculum development, assessment techniques, or educational technology. They often collaborate with teachers, administrators, and policy makers to apply their findings in real-world settings, ultimately aiming to enhance the quality of education for all students.
