Aug 22, 2022 · The bar model method has emerged as a promising heuristic (Ng & Lee, 2009; Verschaffel et al., 2020) for conceptualising quantities and the relationships among them in situations involving ratio and proportional reasoning.

The chapters in this book address multiple facets and components of research and the flow from planning, to executing, and to evaluating a study. Part I of this book, Introduction: Overview and Background, conveys what methodology is and the roles it plays in scientific knowledge.

The Bar Model Method (BMM) of teaching and learning mathematics makes use of bar diagrams to concretely model facts given in a word problem (Walker, 2005). Walker (2005) further stressed that the use of this strategy has proven to be a very successful method for students in organizing information.

Definition of Research Research Paradigms (a.k.a research philosophy or research model) specifying concepts-phenomena of interest as defined in model, and statements- propositions involving concepts Theories, Methods and Application Domains Classes of Research Methodologies that have emerged as a consequence of conducting similar kinds of research ...
going beyond personal experience, thoughts, feelings, and opinions that do not refer to other sources of information some subjects require us to go beyond our personal knowledge and experience research is undertaken to: explore an idea, probe an issue, solve a problem, make an argument that compels us to turn to outside help
why produce outlines, reports, presentations, and/or dissertations- we need to have these deliverables for two reasons:
because it is extremely difficult to do without scaffolding or structuring ones thoughts because if your thoughts cannot be communicated then you do not truly understand them
analysing a workplace, conducting a survey or an interview carrying out a laboratory experiment, building apparatus analysing a literary or historical text, a film or performance Primary sources of information include statistical data, historical data, works or art...
Secondary Research- involves the examination of studies of other researchers Secondary Sources include books, articles about political issues, medical issues, scientific debates or literary works Most research and most research writing involves the use of both forms of research and both forms of research sources
eg. empiricism, positivism, postmodernism, post-structuralism models identify basic concepts and describe what reality is like, and the conditions by which we can study it ideas identified in models are called concepts
sometimes the word ‘model’ is used incorrectly in IS- it is used in a much more constrained sense to indicate a set of (hopefully) related concepts similar use occurs with ‘framework’- have to distinguish between the disciplinary usage of the term and the term as it exists in the philosophy of science also known as research philosophy, research par...
eg. information, cats, dogs, motivation, usability a concept is the relationship between the word or symbol and an idea and its conception-
everybody, everywhere makes use of concepts many concepts are shared especially if we are members of the same culture- eg. baby, hate, justice
it is through them that we can make sense of reality, and perceive order and coherence used to communicate our experience of the environment around us our perception of our surroundings is therefore highly dependent on the scale of our knowledge and our familiarity with a wide range of concepts
according to the model being used researchers in natural science will try to define meanings with great precision- this may be possible to do in research social scientists however often recognise that the concepts within their models may be based on opinions, values, traditions, cultures and rules that cannot be precisely ‘pinned down’ Do you think...
a system of classification offer explanations, make predictions, and acquire a sense of understanding concepts are only useful in providing a system of classification (typology) the remaining expectations are met by research statements
therefore the meaning and value of concepts cannot be assessed apart from their use in statements interestingly: while concepts can be generally measured for the degree of agreement about its use and its meaning amongst users of the concept, statements are generally more complicated certain types of statements reoccur within a discipline – these ma...
research models (paradigms) are applied to understanding particular application domains (also known as a problem domain) by means of deploying methods which have behind them particular theories (next section ...) research models (paradigms) are deployed using one of a number of recognised research methodologies- the choice is largely a matter of di...
theory is a set of interrelated constructs (concepts), definitions and propositions (statements) that presents a systematic view of phenomena by specifying relations among variables arranged with the purpose of explaining and predicting phenomena theory is a convenience – necessity for organising facts and constructs into a meaningful and manageabl...
methods (a.k.a. techniques) are used to reveal the existence of, identify the ‘value’, significance or extent of, or represent semantic relationships between one or more concepts identified in a model from which statements can be made sometimes a distinction is made between methods and technique- one definition has technique as the way or manner in...
in order to know the range of available methods that can be selected- you must know about the theory being applied an important issue involves realising that behind every method there is always a theory theories also need to be checked for appropriacy and relevance with respect to a given application domain
theory methods are based on theories theoretical appropriacy and method(s) relevance methodological appropriacy and relevance application domian
application domains are defined as those substantive araeas, examples, cases that theory and methods are applied in turn, the application of methods to a particular domain can put these methods at risk- they may not explain the domain being investigated in some cases small adjustments to methods are sufficient to yield useful and appropriate findin...
in severe cases the application of methods to a particular domain can put the theory at risk can be manifest in several ways and may involve: major projects to revamp theories to account for the special conditions, or the use of additional theories to account for these special conditions real researchers look for these occasions- it often means you...

as a strategy, using multiple theories may appear to be simpler than improving the basis of a theory and it can be useful: therefore this strategy is more commonly used, but it is fraught with danger theoretical pluralism- we can easily mislead ourselves into thinking that several theoreis are compatible because we can apply them an acceptable alte...

A bar chart plots the number of times a particular value or category occurs in a data set, with the length of the bar representing the number of observations with that score or in that category.
Aug 1, 2015 · In this paper, we take up both the critique on the lack of “interesting research” and the challenge posed by Alvesson and Sandberg (2011) to adopt methodologies that stimulate challenging ideas; and we propose that scenarios provide a methodology scholars can use to produce “interesting research”.
