This chapter provides tentative answers to five questions (asked by the editor): (1) What issues or ideas triggered your research into Catholic education and schools; (2) How did you conduct your research in a Catholic school?; (3) How did you research methodology need to adapt for Catholic Education and Catholic schools?; (4) What were your main research findings?; and (5) What advice would you give to prospective researchers in Catholic Education? In offering my point of view, I am responding as an applied economist working in international development whose work is not primarily about Catholic education, but who has done a bit of research in this area. In answering the questions (as suggested by the editor), I will mention my own research, so that if you are interested in looking in more details at that research, this will be easier for you. But I will also end this chapter with a broader discussion of what might constitute impactful research. I will do this acknowledging fully that my own research has not been that impactful according to the impact metrics I will use for illustration. Still, I hope that the discussion will be useful to you as an aspiring (or even seasoned) researcher.
