Abstract

This concise paper explores how Design-Based Research (DBR) can practically guide pedagogical innovation through collaborative curriculum design. We illustrate this with four short case studies (vignettes) of DBR implemented in different discipline contexts in higher education. An examination of the common characteristics of these four project designs show how DBR can be practically implemented as a transferable educational design framework. Future work includes deeper analysis and reporting on the longitudinal impact on student learning of these projects in a subsequent full journal paper.
