About

In design-based research (DBR), the purpose is not to prove that one intervention is better than the other but to systematically design, develop and investigate an intervention in real practice, usually in close cooperation with teachers. Interventions could be, for example, a new approach to teach a specific topic, an innovative learning environment or a strategy to use a new educational tool. Its purpose is not only a well-tested teaching strategy or a learning environment but also insight into the characteristics of successful interventions, which will add to the knowledge available in the literature.

Common phases of DBR are preliminary research, development of a prototype and assessment of this prototype in practice. Usually this results in indications for improvement of the intervention after which usually a new research cycle follows.

The presentation will describe examples of successful DBR investigations. A list of do's and don'ts will be based on DBR-experiences with supervising PhD work and reviewing papers for conferences and journals. Reference will be made to relevant literature about this type of research. .
