Direct linkCassia Fernandez; Tatiana Hochgreb-Haegele; Adelmo Eloy; Paulo Blikstein – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Recent work in science education has emphasized the importance of the conceptual, social, and epistemic dimensions in science learning. But what about the material dimension--the actual physical materials that students use? The way their characteristics and affordances limit or determine instruction has thus far not been as thoroughly explored.…

Jung, Jiyoon; Mercier, Emma – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2023
In response to the criticism that theory-driven researcher-developed learning tools lack scalability and sustainability in the real world, the design-based implementation research (DBIR) approach was proposed. However, few empirical studies actually describe what a DBIR study looks like and how it can inform readers about learning tool design. We…

Aylward, Ronald C.; Cronjé, Johannes C. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2022
The pedagogical paradigms of Direct instruction (behaviorism/objectivism) and Constructivism are often seen as opposing paradigms at the ends of an instructional design continuum. Unfortunately, this view makes the two approaches mutually exclusive. Designers must use the one at the expense of the other. A previous study proposed that the two…

Swan, Richard H.; Plummer, Kenneth J.; West, Richard E. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
In this paper, we synthesize research on the nature and development of expertise to propose a developmental model that describes four main areas of expert knowledge: procedural, conditional, and conceptual knowledge, along with knowledge generation. We propose that these types of expert knowledge map onto and promote the development of four types…

Gibbons, Andrew S. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
Instructional strategy is defined in abstract terms independent of instructional theories, philosophies, or standard formulas. Strategies share dimensions in common that allow instructional designers to communicate about them in theory-agnostic terms. These dimensions supply a common reference for comparing design viewpoints and discussing their…

Fink, Maximilian C.; Radkowitsch, Anika; Bauer, Elisabeth; Sailer, Michael; Kiesewetter, Jan; Schmidmaier, Ralf; Siebeck, Matthias; Fischer, Frank; Fischer, Martin R. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Collaborations between researchers and practitioners have recently become increasingly popular in education, and educational design research (EDR) may benefit greatly from investigating such partnerships. One important domain in which EDR on collaborations between researchers and practitioners can be applied is research on simulation-based…

Stephanie L. Moore; Craig D. Howard; Elizabeth Boling; Heather Leary; Charles B. Hodges – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
In the field of educational technology and instructional design, research methods are emerging that aim to curate different forms of knowledge and insights beyond traditional research studies, or what Reigeluth and An (in Reigeluth and Carr-Chellman (eds) Instructional-design theories and models: Building a common knowledge base, Lawrence Erlbaum…

Rong, Hui; Choi, Ikseon – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2019
Employing authentic cases experienced by practitioners in educational contexts is critical to expanding students' experience and engaging students in authentic problems to promote their real-world problem-solving skills. Although in real life, practitioners experience both success and failure and learn from both, little research has been done so…

Richardson, Jennifer C.; Ashby, Iryna; Alshammari, Ali Nazil; Cheng, Zui; Johnson, Brian S.; Krause, Terri S.; Lee, Daeyeoul; Randolph, Anthony E.; Wang, Huanhuan – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2019
Employing phenomenological techniques this qualitative study investigates perceptions of collaborative relationships between instructional designers and faculty at an R1 university. While past research has considered the growing involvement of instructional designers in course development, and knowledge and skills expected from an instructional…

Järvelä, Sanna; Kirschner, Paul A.; Panadero, Ernesto; Malmberg, Jonna; Phielix, Chris; Jaspers, Jos; Koivuniemi, Marika; Järvenoja, Hanna – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2015
For effective computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL), socially shared regulation of learning (SSRL) is necessary. To this end, this article extends the idea first posited by Järvelä and Hadwin ("Educ Psychol" 48(1):25-39, 2013) that successful collaboration in CSCL contexts requires targeted support for promoting individual…

Science Created by You (SCY) learning environments are computer-based environments in which students learn about science topics in the context of addressing a socio-scientific problem. Along their way to a solution for this problem students produce many types of intermediate products or learning objects. SCY learning environments center the entire…

Demmans Epp, Carrie; Park, Gina; Plumb, Christopher – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2015
The increased linguistic and cultural diversity of undergraduate classrooms at English language institutions has imposed additional pedagogical and assessment challenges on instructors, many of whom lack the knowledge necessary to design classroom activities and assessments that are fair to all students regardless of students' background and…

Yanchar, Stephen C.; Gabbitas, Bruce W. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2011
This paper presents the concept of "critical flexibility" as an alternative to eclecticism in instructional design. Eclecticism is often viewed as a persuasive alternative to theoretical orthodoxy (i.e., rigid use of a single perspective or process) due to the openness and flexibility it purports to offer. In contrast, the authors argue that…

Jonassen, David H. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2012
Decision making is the most common kind of problem solving. It is also an important component skill in other more ill-structured and complex kinds of problem solving, including policy problems and design problems. There are different kinds of decisions, including choices, acceptances, evaluations, and constructions. After describing the centrality…

Song, Yanjie; Wong, Lung-Hsiang; Looi, Chee-Kit – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2012
In this paper, we present a mobile technology-assisted seamless learning process design where students were facilitated to develop their personalized and diversified understanding in a primary school's science topic of the life cycles of various living things. A goal-based approach to experiential learning model was adopted as the pedagogical…
