Session 2 - Design Based Research

In this session we look at what I believe is the most practical and useful research and development methodology for distance education.

Design based research(DBR) is a 'common sense" set of techniques to develop, test and implement new interventions in education and develop models and theories for enriching and improving our educational understanding and our practice.

I hope you will have a chance to read an article that I published in 2005. It overviews DBR and presents an example from Athabasca University.

Doctoral students using this methodology will be especially interested in this article:

Welcome to Portugal. I don't know if it is your first time in Portugal, but in spite of the fact that we are in a serious crisis, you will enjoy your stay very much.

My question is simple: do you use, in your elearning investigation procedure a road book, like an investigation diary, similar to most biologists? Thank you. António

In my research I use this inquiry to categorize Felder Learning Styles. I have translated it to Portuguese and adapt it to young students (K12).

This inquiry of course is well studied: http://www4.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/ILSdir/ILS_Validation(IJEE).pdf

Well, I don't have a team, I can't study the validity and reliability of this inquiry in Portuguese and for young students.

I have compared the overall results of this inquiry, in several countries, including Brasil, and found out that they are similar to my results. Is this enough? What should I do, in your opinion?

Hi Antonio
In answer to your first question, I wish I was better at documenting my "field notes" but ......
Ido have an old fashioned notebook that goes most everywhere with me. I usually publish a couple of posts a month on terrya.edublogs.org I have tried to get into using online tools like Evernote, but alas like learning to touch type, I may be too old a dog, top learn new tricks. ....sigh.

I do however make very serious use of a bibliographic software, End notes, to document all the published work I read and find it REALLY valuable when writing my wn work. I am thinking of switching to an integrated online tool for bibliography work, like Mendeley, but they don't have a ;'cite well you write' tool for automatically inserting references into my word processor, which I really like with EndNotes.

As for your work on Learning styles, I am not a big fan of any of the learning styles work, but the international context your note is interesting. You would have to build the context for intercultural comparisons perhaps using Hofstede's work.

Then send to to a journal and wait for reviewers feedback.

Thank you João for your link. Is it difficult to use this software?

No, it relatively easy. It has an online and a desktop version and it is free (with the option of a paid account to get more online space). EndNote is top but it is a commercial version.

Thank you for your message.

I really like the old fashion way in respect to notes, but I understand that it less effective in the point of view of writing, searching and documenting: sometimes you ask "where did I read this?" Where his this reference? Where his this note? And so on ... !

Using the old fashion way, it has two great advantages for me: less time in front of the computer screen and more time reflecting about what you wrote when you try to write the final version of your work.

I will go today to your lecture, yesterday I was suddenly ill: the antibiotic was not the correct one. I am better today. :) See you latter.
