In this paper, I will compare my thoughts on what it means to “conduct research related to the production, rather than the consumption, of curriculum guidelines” to warp threads (the essence of the subject, the specialized sciences that form the background of the subject, and lesson development for each subject) and weft threads (general qualities and abilities, competencies, education-related sciences, learning methods, learning styles, and evaluation methods). I will also provide examples of the cloth (i.e., research) woven with these warp and weft threads, using my own research as an example.
The future of education will be shaped by how teachers plan their lessons and what students create using the fabric produced by pedagogical researchers. Therefore, pedagogical researchers must have the qualities and abilities to go beyond subjects, fields, and areas, find the threads that weave together research, and devise new dyeing and weaving methods.
