Thinking about Pragmatism and Dewey's sense that theory-practice is a false dichotomy
From Wikipedia:
“Primacy of practice:
Pragmatism is based on the premise that the human capability to theorize is necessary for intelligent practice. Theory and practice are not separate spheres; rather, theories and distinctions are tools or maps for finding our way in the world. As John Dewey put it, there is no question of theory versus practice but rather of intelligent practice versus uninformed practice.”
This helps us to understand what scholars - researchers - "reflective practitioners" - are supposed to be doing.
