Action Design Research - An Integrative Research Method for Studying Design
نویسنده
چکیده
It is the premise of this position paper that a combination of design research and action research can be very useful for studying high performance designs. However, there has been a separation between the two approaches. A growing body of literature is recognizing these cross fertilization possibilities between AR and DR. Researchers argue for similarity between the two (Järvinen 2007; Lee 2007; Figueiredo and Cunha 2007) as well as caution against fusion (Iivari 2007). Others suggest a middle ground stating that in some situations and contexts, the two may be integrated (Cole et al. 2005; Sein et al. 2007). In the following we will suggest a set of steps for an integrated research program based on Action Design Research.

متن کاملIntegrative Action and Learning by Developing (LbD): Canonical Action Research
This study examines the setting of canonical action research in an integrative action process within Learning by Developing (LbD) culture. The evaluation phases of this action research are based on the evaluation transactions of the Finnish Higher Education Evaluation Council (FINHEEC) and furthermore the canonical evaluation to the research is produced. Canonical is defined as “exactness” or “...
متن کاملIntegrative Cell Formation and Layout Design in Cellular Manufacturing Systems
This paper proposes a new integrative view of manufacturing cell formation and both inter-cell and intra-cell layout problems. Cells formation and their popular bi-directional linear layout are determined simultaneously through a Dynamic Programming algorithm (with the objective of minimizing the inter-cell flow cost under a cell size constraint). This Dynamic Programming algorithm is implement...
