Constructing a design framework and design methodology from educational design research on real-world educational technology development

Educational design research (EDR) seeks to contribute both practice and theory by developing solutions that improve educational generating usable generalisable knowledge. Most EDR researchers tend focus on reporting their contributions practice. Therefore, there is a need for disseminating pays more attention the theoretical of so those outside particular project can benefit. This paper focuses contributions, particularly framework methodological knowledge, 6-year enquiry aimed develop technologies promote primary school mathematics learning classroom Informed literature direct experiences working in collaboration with teachers various disciplines during this iterative study, real-world guidelines conducting are proposed. The highlights four essential aspects—content, pedagogy, practice, technology—that should be considered when ensure benefits, feasibility, successful utilisation adoption. proposed EDR, such as exploring alternatives employing appropriate construction evaluation methods, assist other researchers, including single doctoral student, embracing opportunities overcoming challenges may emerge.
