Editorial: Getting New Horizons of Partnerships in Education Research

Abstract

The events of recent years have produced unique circumstances for the development of the Russian scientific and educational community, requiring significant changes in the topics, subjects, and methods of study. Numerous issues persisted in this field despite the rapidly rising number of educational studies, most of which were caused by their inconsistency with the demands of current educational practice. The excessive theorizing, passion for Russian pedagogy’s history, compilation, and other negative aspects of research are signs of its declining quality. Contrarily, when educational conditions changed quickly, there was a corresponding rise in the demand for pertinent research, the materials and outcomes of which have become crucial to the current educational process. This is especially important when it comes to the need to make decisions and adjustments regarding educational policy based on data obtained from scientific study.
