“…According to one of the pioneer researchers, Woody (1924), good research should necessarily address the identification of a problem, form hypotheses, and suggest a clearer picture toward the solutions. Creswell et al (2016) have termed research as a gathering of data and systematically analyzing it to get some patterns; however, some researchers have mentioned that research has to what, when, why, and how related questions to a certain problem, which are further investigated with a broader understanding of techniques and procedures for data analysis.…”

Green construction procurement is a part of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) that influence economic growth on a strategic level. Adopting green technologies and practices has no longer been an option but a well-worth route for gaining a competitive advantage in the construction sector. The emergent concepts of green procurement and sustainability have raised the need to measure the financial performances in supply chain practices. Green procurement is now gaining importance in the construction industry and supply chain practices for a safer tomorrow. The study aimed to investigate the impact of construction procurement on green logistic services, innovation practices, and their subsequent role in gaining sustainable economic development goals. The population frame for this study was the project teams (engineers and project managers) of construction companies in China. The sampling design followed was convenient random sampling. The study was conducted using self-administered questionnaire surveys to avoid any respondent biases and/or errors. The study's findings show that construction procurement is partially associated with green logistic services management, which thoroughly determines the sustainable economic development goals. Furthermore, construction procurement is found to have a significant impact on green innovation practices that partially predict the SDGs, and the mediation of green logistic services and innovation practices are partially mediated to the construction procurement and sustainable goals. In the future, the study results will help the construction practitioners, contractors, bidders, and engineering community to shape their relationships in a greener way up or down the stream of their supply chains. Additionally, the implication of green procurement and logistic services offers many challenges in the long run for attaining SDGs; however, in the short run, it gives operational efficiency and less hazardous environmental emissions.

“…I learned that the expectation that education researchers concern themselves with educational practice has been far from universal among the leaders of AERA. The AERA presidents during the early years of the Association defined the task of the presidential address as providing an inventory of the previous year’s accumulated education research, as represented in fewer than a dozen journals (see, for example, Woody, 1924) or, alternately, a mention of the most outstanding few publications within each of a set of defined areas (e.g., Thiessen, 1923). That this task was even considered feasible signals how small the field was, and how limited the number of publications available.…”

The Role of Relevance in Education Research, as Viewed by Former Presidents

American Educational Research Association presidents’ presidential addresses have only intermittently considered relevance as a criterion of quality for education research. A few, though, argued that education research could only distinguish itself from research in the disciplines through attention to improving educational outcomes. David Krathwohl (1969) called for a coherent community encompassing practitioners, policymakers, and researchers. Philip Jackson (1990) urged that local research knowledge, rather than research-based dictates, be communicated. Alan Schoenfeld (1999) challenged education researchers simultaneously to build knowledge and offer solutions to practical problems. He anticipated current research-practice partnerships and shifts toward practice-embedded research supports. But only if the larger education research enterprise supports these efforts will the shift be radical and robust enough to persist and survive.

“… 5 Addresses of AERA presidents between 1926 and 1947 could not be found, so AERA staff provided articles that these presidents authored at about the same time they served. Some examples are B. R. Buckingham, who served two terms as president and authored a Journal of Research article in 1920 titled “A Proposed Index of Efficiency in Teaching United States History,” and President Clifford Woody in 1924, who gave an address titled: “A Survey of Educational Research in 1923,” Journal of Educational Research, 9 (5). …”

For a century, AERA has had as its mission using research to improve K–12 and higher education practices. Born in a period of reform, the Association’s mission—reformist both in spirit and the letter—has been articulated time and again by its elected presidents. As different reform movements have swept across U.S. schools, as demographics and contexts changed, elected presidents reflecting those shifting reforms, contexts, and demographics have adhered to the founding mission of the Association. Using presidents’ addresses across the century, I show that the belief in using research to improve practice has remained stable yet contested in recent decades.
