How does CPD affect teaching and learning? Issues in systematic reviewing from a practitioner perspective.
The systematic review process developed by the Centre grew out of EPPI’s work in the health field and the belief that there is “much that researchers in education and users of educational research can learn from work in these other areas, although some of the challenges of research synthesis in education are particular to that setting”

Teaching and Learning Research Programme - Research Tasters
These short articles link research findings to suggestions for collecting classroom data for reflection and future planning. They cover a range of topics including parental involvement and behaviour. One taster suggests how teachers can collect, then build on evidence about pupils’ contacts with literacy at home to create ideas parents can use with their children. 180 tasters can be accessed now at http://www.tlrp.org/pa/ with many more forthcoming.
