Design Research: Theoretical and Methodological Issues
نویسندگان
چکیده
The term “design experiments” was introduced in 1992, in articles by Ann Brown (1992) and Allan Collins (1992). Design experiments were developed as a way to carry out formative research to test and refine educational designs based on principles derived from prior research. More recently the term design research has been applied to this kind of work. In this article, we outline the goals of design research and how it is related to other methodologies. We illustrate how design research is carried out with two very different examples. And we provide guidelines for how design research can best be carried out in the future.

متن کاملSome Historical, Theoretical, and Methodological Issues in Identifying E¤ects of Political Institutions
