The idea
Educational psychology treats teaching as both an art, which is skill built from experience, and a science, which is systematic knowledge tested by research.
In practice
Researchers test methods scientifically; teachers apply the findings to the craft of their own classrooms.
Where people slip
Neither half is enough alone: classroom innovation raises new questions that research then has to test.
