Abstract
Evaluating products and processes of pedagogical research cannot be reduced to simple operational algorithm or procedures: the reasons why are intrinsic to pedagogy itself as a social science, as a commitment and intervention and on the society and on the person in society, to the peculiar relationship between theory and praxis through a level which is the mediation level between theory and praxis levels and connects these two levels mutually. The use of the citations index and of impact factor would lead to paradoxical results. An organic relationship between pedagogy and the experience of education actually applied is needed, to ensure the scientific nature of pedagogical research, and to ensure pedagogy as open and evolving process, and also to provide its assessment. This evaluation will find in the magazines of his field an important step, because the products of pedagogical research are presented into written essays, but the auditing or evaluation of an essay and ideas that it conveys cannot be detected in other writings, but its evaluation can be found in society and effectively in pose and solve social problems, and the resulting feedback. Evaluating products and processes of pedagogical research, shortly speaking, essentially means to evaluate the positive consequences on society and on person in the society. It may involve the deployment of conceptual and operational tools in professional pedagogical practice, whereas pedagogy is also a social profession, and in the practice of the teaching profession too.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
