Research Through Design in Higher Education

Reinmann, Gabi; Herzberg, Dominikus; Brase, Alexa

Anyone who practises design-based research (DBR) in higher education needs guidance. This book provides it: with Research Through Design, the authors present a theoretically sound form of DBR that is adapted to higher education. Heuristics and instruments support the various dimensions of research activity and help readers to make informed decisions and leverage their own strengths. Concise recommendations, e.g. on quality standards or communicating results, and an extensive bibliography round off the handbook, making it a good companion for early-career researchers, university teachers and academic developers.

This book is the English translation of the German monograph: Reinmann, G., Herzberg, D. & Brase, A. (2024). Forschendes Entwerfen: Design-Based Research in der Hochschuldidaktik. transcript Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1515/9783839474242
