Transcription
Origins
ResearchED was founded by Tom Bennett in 2013.[9] According to its website, the organization came about after a discussion between Bennett, Sam Freedman, and science writer Ben Goldacre.[10] It grew out of Bennett's frustration that teachers "were not leaving their initial training familiar with the best and latest research on how to teach, the way people learn, remember, focus and behave".[11]
Conferences
ResearchED's conferences have grown over time to more than 1,000 participants by 2017.[12]
Reception
In a 2020 article published by the British Educational Research Journal, academic Steven Watson accused ResearchED of astroturfing and as an 'outrider for [Michael] Gove's education reforms'.[13]
Daniel T. Willingham, a guest speaker at a ResearchED conference, refers to ResearchED as an "organization by and for practitioners, meant to bring education research to the public via low-cost conferences throughout the world, and now a magazine",[14]
The UK Minister of State for Schools, Nick Gibb, praised the organisation, calling it "a grassroots, teacher-led revolt against the old order in education".[12]
