Global developments demand that education adapt to digital transformation and the demands of the knowledge age. However, research in educational management is often viewed as merely an academic formality, rather than a strategic instrument. The assumption that policy can be implemented without a research foundation creates a gap between theory and practice. This phenomenon has given rise to problems such as a low research culture, disparities in educational quality, and weak evidence-based policies. This paper aims to outline the meaning, function, advantages, and differences between research and other studies, in order to emphasize its urgency for the development of educational management.
