The publication provides insights into the value of including implementation research in the study of early care and education (ECE) and its potential to improve programs and policies and achieve stronger outcomes for all young children. As more programs are brought to scale, our ability to achieve greater impacts for all young children rests on a more nuanced understanding of the context in which ECE programs and policies are being implemented locally and the different impacts on specific subgroups of children. As a result, now is the moment for ECE practitioners, researchers, and policymakers to collaborate and identify the critical components of effective ECE programs and policies and engage in meaningful exploration of what works, for whom, and under what conditions.  \nThis conversation guide was created to help faculty in institutions of higher education use Getting it Right as aresource in the preparation of future ECE practitioners—early educators working directly with children; early education leaders administering programs; and those who support them (e.g., coaches) working in school, centerbased, and home-based settings. The overall goal is to highlight that ECE practice and research are connected in multiple ways.  \nFirst, practitioners may seek to understand the foundational knowledge of the ECE field—what we already know from research about ECE and child de","cbCaifxtwLzXPo8r","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifxtwLzXPo8r","pdf",4502552,133,"English","# Getting started: Initiating and sustaining conversations with your students about implementation research\n## Purpose and Rationale\n## Using This Guide and How it is Organized\n## What is Implementation Research?\n## Filling in the Gaps of Knowledge to Improve Outcomes for All Children.\n## How Implementation Research Can Serve the ECE Field.\n## Implementation Research and Your Students: Making the Link.\n# Section 1.
