"The truth is that what goes on in the pages of the American Educational Research Journal stays in the pages of the American Education Research Journal."
That's from an interesting article by Sam Wineburg on history, historians, and making an impact in the real world. His point, to save lazy people from clicking through, is that there's no set of interpreters who take the results of academic research in peer-reviewed journals and make it attractive to the general public, or even the teachers in schools.''
[Update--to clarify, I'm the "failed historian" in the title.]
