    • Abstract:
      Objective: To encourage the inclusion of research practice in instruction. Methods: The choice to bring existing research into a classroom to enhance student engagement and learning does not have to rest with one's own practice; however, those whose primary responsibility is to teach may be required to connect their research to teaching. Results: This article describes one instructor's use of research to introduce evaluation concepts to undergraduate program planning students and suggests the value of sharing field experiences. Outcomes: The example field work is a handwashing program for preschool children for which the instructor was hired to complete an evaluation. Instructors who do not engage in research may find inspiration for classroom activities in the works of others, especially in the public health field.
