Creating Design Knowledge in Educational Innovation : Theory, Methods and Practice Paperback / softback

Examining how research-informed design knowledge is created, represented and used in educational research and innovation projects, this book offers theoretical, methodological, and practical guidance on how to (and how not to) create, represent and (re)use research-informed design principles. The chapters explore how educational researchers, designers, teachers and other innovating practitioners can make outcomes of educational research and innovation projects scalable, readily applicable in educational design, and impactful on practice.

They offer methodological ‘know-how’ that is theoretically robust and grounded in research and design experiences.

Providing critical reflection on current theories, methods and practices, this book also considers directions for the future in light of developments in semantic web-technologies, AI and other emerging technologies. This book is a helpful guide for researchers, research students and innovation designers who aim to produce and apply design knowledge that is robust, grounded in research, and practically useful as a part of diverse research and innovation projects.
