Onderzoeksgerelateerde activiteiten in het dagelijkse werk van leraren

Abstract

The focus of this article is on the research-related activities that primary school teachers conduct in their daily work. Furthermore, the school support for these activities is examined. The research-related activities were operationalized on basis of Van Strien's research cycle and characteristics of systematic reflection. Data has been collected with a survey (n = 220) and a comparative case study in two schools. The results show that teachers in their perceptions conduct many research-related activities, though strong differences were found between schools. The case study of the two schools shows an explicit and collectively conducted school policy with a focus on evidence-informed decision-making to be positive for teachers' research-related activities.
