Abstract
Extension workers think of themselves as "change agents." But if they are to remain effective agents of change, they must be inquirers as well as evangelists; they must recognize the importance of educational research in their roles as educators. Such research will significantly influence their future professional lives. Research related to Extension education will certainly increase. As new findings develop into usable innovations, Extension workers must understand and appreciate this research in order to make the innovation operational. The author discusses the importance of educational research and its implications for Extension.
