Explanation - What is Design-Based Research (DBR)? - 5 views

    • djplaner
       
      For netgl you won't be doing "full/real" DBR. It won't be iterative and you won't be doing the development and implementation stages. Just the analysis and design. Mainly due to time constraints.
  • contextually-sensitive design principles and
    • djplaner
       
      One of the challenges you'll face is identifying the design principles that will underpin your intervention. It is important that these design principles be based on good "theory"
  • current real-world problems
    • djplaner
       
      Identifying what your problem is and how other people have understood it and how they have attempted to solve it, is a very useful first step in the analysis phase.

      Hence the peer review element in Assignment 2. Actively trying to encourage you to share your ideas and approaches with others, from both within and outside the course.

      Whether DBR is the only research method/approach mentioned here, or even it is the one mentioned is still a little open. I do have a personal preference for this. But may be open to flexibility.

      Where you start work on your final essay/DBR-plan to apply NGL to your learners
  • Writer’s workshops???
    • djplaner
       
      The idea is to require some form of peer feedback on your essay. Whether it's in the form of a writers' workshop is to be resolved. It's a great process, but the reality of how to implement it in this course is to be decided.

Using a design-based research study to identify principles for training instructors to teach online | Shattuck | The International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning - 1 views

  • In DBR, the content, structure, and instructional approaches of an intervention are first identified in the analysis and exploration phase of a design project through a literature review and the input of experts and practitioners. This information is then used to design the first iteration of the intervention. A preliminary literature review is conducted with the purpose of identifying draft design principles that have the potential to address the problem the intervention is being designed to solve. In the COAT project, the draft design guidelines included what content, structure, and instructional approaches might best be used to address the training and experiential needs of adjunct faculty who are making the transition to teaching online
  • Two-thirds (16 out of 24) of focus group participants identified that their experience of being an online student in the COAT course had influenced their subsequent online teaching practice.

Some questions to guide your DBR - 1 views

  • What is the problem/challenge/focus? Why is it a problem? Who says, or, who agrees and doesn’t agree? What has been done so far to deal with this? Who tried it and what were their results? In light of all this, what else could be done, and what will be best for this particular problem? What makes this idea viable? What process of implementation will work best, and why?

    A post from Charm that explains DBR - including link to a video of Barab - and ending with a collection of 8 questions to ask about a problem. I recommend applying these to your problem.

A Design-Based Approach To Teachers' Professional Learning | Canadian Education Association (CEA) - 1 views

  • Yet school leaders and classroom teachers often fail to see a connection between educational theory and research conducted in universities and the real-world, complex and contextually rich teaching, learning and leading contexts in schools.
  • “Best practice, evidence-based practice, and reflective practice all refer to ways of making optimum use of know-how”[3]; however, while necessary, these are insufficient for creating new insights into practice, or “know-why” directed towards advancing practice
  • Design-based professional learning, which builds upon design-based research findings and theories, provides the bridge for teachers to advance practice in a principled, practical way.
  •  
    Article arguing/explaining the value of design-based research to classroom teachers. The link with NGL is that the course uses DBR as the method by which you consider how to apply NGL principles to interventions in your role "as Teacher".

An Evolving Map of Design Practice and Design Research - 1 views

  •  
    Has a map that outlines design methods. Could perhaps be something in which to place BAD/SET, but also to ponder with respect to teachers and digital technologies.
  •  
    An article that develops a map of different design practices. Given that Assignment 2 is based on "design-based research" and that many of your design instruction/learning for a living (or interest) this should be useful. Where do you place your practice on the map? Where does DBR fit? Can DBR fit in multiple places? Do NGL based learning designs have a particular affinity with anywhere in particular on this map? Personally, I don't think any of these approaches is bad. They each have strengths and weaknesses and each can be done poorly, or brilliantly. But I do think that teachers and researchers tend to cluster toward the left-hand side of the map.

Mindful or mindless? - Cognitive Edge - 1 views

  • A second problem is an over focus on the individual and insufficient focus on their interactions and the need to engage in those interactions
  • Focusing on the individual in isolation from the community is a form of neo-liberal disenfranchisement
  •  
    The topic of this post is not directly related to NGL. What I think is relevant/important is the quote an over focus on the individual and insufficient focus on their interactions and the need to engage in those interactions Which I think is a perspective/problem that resonates with NGL. NGL at some level is about encouraging, enabling, and thinking about the interactions - the connections. As you are thinking about your DBR projects, consider how, if, and what your project is doing about the interactions between the people and objects within your particular context. For a concrete example, I'll turn to a particular bandwagon of mine. A couple of people have "as teacher" roles that involve helping teachers use digital technologies effectively. Often the problem here is framed as digital literacy. The individual teacher doesn't know enough about technology to fix the problem. The common solution is to do some form of Professional Development so that the individual can develop the knowledge. Which for me, brings back the quote. - "focus on the individual and insufficient focus on their interactions" A NGL solution to this problem would - I think - focus more (but not entirely) on the interactions.

Developing a framework for teaching open courses | open thinking - 2 views

  •  
    Alec Courous has been an open educator (on outcome/user of netgl) for quite some time. This post summarises how that experience has been abstracted into a framework (a set of principles/guidelines) for teaching an open course. This has some significant connection to Assignment 2.
