Strategic Framing

This research engaged with how secondary schools in Christchurch framed sustainability through web based interfaces. The key focus of the research was how schools are engaging students in sustainability through their web-site messaging. While some research has been done around whole-school approaches to sustainability, no research has been done around schools engaging students through their web-based sustainability material. This article is part of a wider project involving a series of case studies which sought to understand more about how to engage youth in sustainable practices. A qualitative case study aims to describe the topic in detail and in context (Yin, 2009). The benefit of gathering varied evidence from multiple cases, allows for cross-case comparison and greater generalisation. From these cases the team identified four key themes which underpinned sustainability: a future focus; diversity/inclusiveness; community; and environment. The findings indicated that while there was little strategic framing, a bottom-up approach which allowed staff, students and the community to initiate a range of projects was a successful model. This appears to increase the engagement and commitment in schools and allows local communities to address local problems rather than trying to adapt to a centralised or over-arching strategic plan which may be less able to respond quickly and spontaneously to local issues.

Insight Into

This chapter presents the path that one researcher followed in choosing a topic for his Ph.D. dissertation and the decisions he made about how to conduct the research. The research being conducted involves a qualitative case study of how professors at one university adopt the use of Web-based courses. The questions which the researcher asked himself in this process of narrowing the focus are presented to provide insight into his reflective thought process. Insight is gained into how this researcher: chose a topic, decided what conceptual framework to use, approached the literature review, chose research methods, and collected and analyzed data. The importance of reflective thought and the judgement of the researcher are emphasized.

Study Research

Qualitative case study research can be a valuable tool for answering complex, real-world questions. This method is often misunderstood or neglected due to a lack of understanding by researchers and reviewers. This tutorial defines the characteristics of qualitative case study research and its application to a broader understanding of stuttering that cannot be defined through other methodologies. This article will describe ways that data can be collected and analyzed.

Kirkpatrick’S Model

In the era of digital learning, multimedia-based classroom has been commonly used in higher education including Malaysian higher education institutions. A case study has been performed to evaluate web-based learning using Level 1 to 3 of Kirkpatrick's model in a multi-disciplinary course at Multimedia University, Malaysia. In this study, mixed method research was employed in which triangulation was performed from multiple sources of data collection to give deeper understanding. Students perceived that learning with multimedia was enjoyable. They were also motivated in learning and engaged through the use of web module as multimedia was perceived to motivate them and make learning fun. Students showed significant improvements in their knowledge based on the pre-test and post-test results on learning evaluation. Students were perceived to transfer the learning from web-based learning into the learning outcome. The systematic evaluation can provide the feedback that educators and institution as a whole need to improve the learning environment and programme quality. This study contributes to the research field by adding another perspective in evaluations of web-based learning. It also provides empirical evidence on student perspectives, learning and behaviour in a private university. It demonstrated that the Kirkpatrick's model is useful as an evaluation tool to be used in higher education.
