The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Seeking research-grounded solutions to problems of practice: classroom-based interventions in mathematics education (2013, result): “Other researchers have made similar observations in recent years (e.g., Ruthven and Goodchild 2008; Wiliam and Lester 2008), which suggests that not much has changed in the state of affairs summarized by Bishop (1998).”
Research-based interventions in the area of proof: the past, the present, and the future (2017, background): “…gabriel.stylianides@education.ox.ac.uk 1 Department of Education, University of Oxford, 15 Norham Gardens, Oxford OX2 6PY, UK 2 University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK learning of mathematics (e.g., Cai et al., 2017; Heid et al., 2006; Ruthven & Goodchild, 2008; Silver, 2003; Wiliam & Lester, 2008).”
On the theoretical, conceptual, and philosophical foundations for research in mathematics education (2005, background): “Conclusions produced by the logic of scholarly discourse too often are not at all helpful in day-to-day practice (cf., Lester & Wiliam, 2002).”
Cur r iculum Resear ch : Tow ar d a Fr amew or k for "Resear ch -based Cur r icula" (2007, background): “Finally, societal values and goals are substantive components of any curriculum (Confrey, 1996; Hiebert, 1999; NRC, 2002; Schwandt, 2002; Tyler, 1949); curriculum research cannot ignore or determine these components (Lester & Wiliam, 2002; Schwandt, 2002).”
