Abstract

Novice researchers have difficulties in operationalization (breaking down of abstract concepts to measurables) and generalization (generalize the findings to make claims). We have designed a system called OPeD (Operationalizing using ProblEm Decomposition), for teaching learning of operationalization. OPeD trains novice researchers in operationalization through problem decomposition. OPeD is based on pedagogical theories of guided inquiry, problem visualization and adaptation. In order to visualize the operationalization process, OPeD guides the learner to create a decomposition tree and construct meaningful hypotheses based on the tree. The gradual and iterative construction of this tree can help learners develop their operationalization skills. In this paper we present the design of OPeD and provide an exemplar of a learner path in the context of educational research.
通过问题分解培养操作化技能的系统
新手研究人员在操作化(将抽象概念分解为可测量的概念)和泛化(将发现概括为主张)方面存在困难。我们设计了一个叫做op (Operationalizing using ProblEm Decomposition)的系统,用于操作化的教学。op通过问题分解训练新手研究人员操作化。op是基于指导性探究,问题可视化和适应的教学理论。为了可视化操作化过程,op指导学习者创建一个分解树,并在此树的基础上构建有意义的假设。这棵树的逐步和迭代构建可以帮助学习者发展他们的操作技能。在本文中,我们提出了op的设计,并提供了一个教育研究背景下的学习者路径的范例。
