Pragmatist Paradigm
• “To a pragmatist, the mandate of science is
not to find truth or reality, the existence of
which are perpetually in dispute, but to
facilitate human problem-solving” (Powell,
2001, p.884)
• Developed from frustration of the lack of
impact of educational research in educational
systems .
Powerpoint Templates 52
Pragmatist Paradigm
• Key features :
– An intervention
– Empirical research in a natural context
– Partnership between researchers and practitioners
– Development of theory and “design principles”
• Action research, mixed methods and DDR
• DDR (design & development research) focuses on the
design, construction, implementation and adoption of a
learning initiative in an authentic context.
