Design-Based Research Methods in Education William A. Sandoval Graduate School of Education & Information Studies
Overview of DBR • Driven by problems of practice • Research of and for practice, not research to practice. • Collaborative research with practitioners • Goals • Implement innovative designs for learning in practical settings • Use these designs as contexts for research on teaching and learning • Method to link observed outcomes to processes of enactment • Assumes that local context profoundly impacts implementation • Places limits on generalization of findings
Mapping the embodied conjecture (Sandoval, 2004)
Timescales of design-based research • Micro-cycles of analysis during implementation • Macro-cycles of retrospective analysis (from Cobb, 2001)
