EDUCATIONAL-RESEARCH IN QUEBEC

This study begins with a brief history of the origin of educational research in Quebec, first through the institutions established, then through the evolution of the overall research funding budgets. after briefly presenting the various centers of educational research, the author takes a closer look at the structure of research funding on which Canada's federal structure and the question of constitutional power sharing inevitably impact. The article concludes with an overview of the research themes and issues that reveal a fairly marked thrust toward applied research on solving problems raised by educational intervention in all its forms.
