Whereas some think that research can be a powerful way to assist teachers in their decision making, others argue that research lacks practical relevance since it is usually distanced from classroom practice. It is true that classroom practices can be influenced by many sources, among those knowledge, experiences and sometimes intuition. These are usually shaped by years of trial and error and collegial discussions which do not seem to relate to the kind of abstract knowledge that research produces. In addition, much of the research carried out is hardly accessible or comprehensible to teachers and more often than not, it is based in contexts which differ from those where most EFL practice takes place. However, there is also some truth in the fact that research-based evidence ‘could’ assist teachers in shaping the principles for any effective EFL lesson if minimum conditions are in place. I will discuss these conditions and also address the who and what issue; who does it, who he/she does it for or with and what for. To sum up, in this talk I would like to argue both sides and provide examples of ways in which both views can meet.
