Let us Learn to Solve Problems: "...experimental design in education is a shell game. The result from such scientific research depends more on the assumptions made by the researchers and analysists as on the actual empirical pheonomena being studied. Indeed, the empirical results are themselves almost irrelevant; you may as well work with random data. And in practice, what we see is empirical research being used to obscure, rather than highlight, the theoretical or political presumptions informing the outcome."
