Conceptual frameworks are conjectural/hypothetical research tools that are particularly important and widely used in the disciplined inquiry, including educational (technology) research. However, there is a lack of guidance on how to construct them. Hence, the objective of the current research was to provide a methodological perspective through a case study on how to develop such a framework for deductive research with a complex research subject. To this end, a five-step technique was constructed and implemented: text database, research panorama, authors’ network and thread, location, and definition. The case of Pygmalion effect was actual and significant as a recent meta-analysis found it to have an outstanding impact, among other leadership interventions, and relevant to educational research as it was first experimented in educational context. The conclusion found the five steps to be intertwined as they were built upon each other, carried the thread forward and opened it up deeper and closer to the research subject by each section. The errors and limitations involved uniqueness, availability, less is more, meaningfulness, approach, and space. Hence, the recommendations were defined as the regard for the complexity of the research subject and the approach to which the defined steps were delegated, the preliminary search on the most up-to-date academic papers on the subject, the only necessary number of collected sources and classes, the sense-making in implementing the steps, and the adaptation to longer essays, theses, or to prepare the foundation of research proposals.

This chapter examines the playful design and enactment of games for learning, and details generative and provocative attributes of playful multistakeholder partnerships for information and communications technology-supported game-based learning in international contexts. Drawing upon the experiences of two educational technology research and development groups, the chapter first identifies four design principles that have guided various global - and playful - game-based learning partnerships in Jamaica, Oman, South Africa, and Switzerland. Such international partnerships were designed as opportunities to co-construct game-based learning by articulating the permitted, establishing collaborative presence, attending carefully to trust, and fostering third space. The second half of this chapter features a case study of ICT-supported game-based learning in Oman, and describes different ways in which a playful multistakeholder partnership can be enacted in a cross-cultural setting. The subject of this case study is Place Out of Time (POOT), a trans-historical simulation of a trial in which students play guests who come from a range of places and time throughout history to discuss some of the great issues of humankind, and to bring the wisdom of history to a modern-day problem. Utilizing narrative methods, four vignettes from playing POOT in Oman are presented that convey the complex, and sometimes contradictory characteristics of playful partnerships for game-based learning in a developing region. The chapter concludes by arguing for a more critical playfulness in game-based learning that can support all partners and players in confronting biases, celebrating difference, and creatively addressing local and global needs.

Survey Responses

This article presents the findings of a case study that aimed to understand the specific leadership styles that are valued by women and men lay representatives in the Public and Commercial Services Union (PCS) and to determine the gendered implications for increasing women’s leadership and representation in trade unions. Survey responses from PCS lay representatives (reps) show the majority of women and men agreed that the leadership style they value, and that makes a good union leader, is post-heroic (communal) leadership. This approach is associated with leadership characteristics such as being helpful, sensitive and kind and are generally practised by women. This contrasts with male union leaders who are associated with a traditional, heroic (agentic) leadership style characterised by confidence, self-reliance and decisiveness. Although some differences exist that highlight gender issues, both women and men lay reps have positive attitudes towards increasing women’s representation and participation in union leadership.
