Sandra was giving a lecture on “Research approaches and methods in technology-enhanced learning” and therefore we did a rough translation of our L3T-chapter to make a hand out for the students.
Abstract:
This article offers an orientation on how research is done in technology-enhanced learning. Therefore, three different approaches to research in the interdisciplinary field will be presented first: hypothesis and theory testing, hypothesis and theory generating, and design oriented methods. Subsequently, some research methods are assigned to the research process – data collection, data analysis, development – and outlined. Finally, hints on the choice of a research method are given and a typical challenge in the field is mentioned.
