This MESHGuide is designed to provide you with practical strategies to help you develop interesting and relevant research questions and to formulate a research design to enable you to engage in research-informed practice in your school or setting.

Getting involved in online communities can be a powerful way of helping you to enhance your practice by sharing your evaluations of approaches or resources that you have trialled with your class. Below are some links to online communities:
