Using Theory to Inform Capacity - Building : Bootstrapping Communities of Practice in Computer Science Education Research
In this paper, we describe our efforts in the deliberate creation of a community of practice of researchers in computer science education (CSEd). We understand community of practice in the sense in which Wenger describes it, whereby the community is characterized by mutual engagement in a joint enterprise that gives rise to a shared repertoire of knowledge, artefacts, and practices. We first id...
متن کاملThe Theory Question In Research Capacity Building In Education: Towards An Agenda For Research And Practice
The question of capacity building in education has predominantly been approached with regard to the methods and methodologies of educational research. Far less attention has been given to capacity building in relation to theory. In many ways the latter is as pressing an issue as the former, given that good research depends on a combination of high quality techniques and high quality theorising....

متن کاملComputing Curricula : Teaching Theory of Science to Computer Science Students ( Science Education / Curriculum , Research and Development )
An ideal Science for the existing Theory of Science (Popper, Carnap, Kuhn, Chalmers) is Physics. Not many modern Sciences conform to that ideal, however. Philosophy of Science (Theory of Science) as it is today is not of much help when trying to understand e.g. Computer Science. There is an urgent need to broaden the Theory of Science perspective in order to match the present situation within t...
متن کاملGeneral practice research - training and capacity building.
The Lancet in 1999 suggested that 'neglect of research has made primary care one of the most intellectually underdeveloped disciplines in medicine' and later labelled general practice research 'a lost cause'. According to the Medical Journal of Australia, this underdevelopment 'stems from a lack of research culture, a heavy service commitment and the late arrival of academic GPs'.
