Abstract
La comunidad educativa en general considera que la investigación educativa no proporciona
resultados útiles. Tratamos de reflexionar sobre los fundamentos de esta opinión intentando
aportar propuestas que puedan aproximarnos a la consecución del objetivo que consideramos
prioritario de la investigación educativa: aportar explicaciones razonables de los hechos o fenó-
menos estudiados a fin de contribuir a la creación de un cuerpo coherente de conocimientos,
orientados a producir la información necesaria para mejorar la acción educativa. Pero no es fácil
ponerse de acuerdo a la hora de concretar su finalidad ni de delimitar las características que
debe tener esa investigación: para unos se trata de desarrollar el conocimiento sobre los procesos
educativos en tanto que otros consideran prioritario la mejora de la práctica.
In general, the educational community considers the educational research does not provide useful results. We try to reflect on the basis of this opinion, trying to provide proposals in order to reach the objective that we consider prioritative in educational research: provide reasonable explanations of the facts or phenomena studied in order to contribute to the creation of a coherent body of knowledge, oriented to produce the necessary information to improve the educational practice. But it is not easy reach an agreement when we want to establish the true purpose of our research or delimit its characteristics: for some people it is about developing knowledge about educational processes while others consider the improvement of practice as a priority.
