The aim of this article is to present excerpts from results of research concerning academic teachers’ experiences in the field of creative didactic work in the context of National Qualification Framework (introduced in 2011). Research was conducted in line with Howard Gruber’s theoretical-methodological approach The evolving systems approach to creative work. For the author of the research the most important were individual meanings given by academic teachers to sentences in the document. It was also significant to observe how teachers implement these meanings in their didactic work regarding: invention, implementation and promotion of new didactic solutions including: concepts, methods, techniques, original models of workshops, students’ grading systems etc.

Abstract Objective: The main aim of paper is to present results from research concerning creative didactic work understood as consciously taken actions whose aim is to invent/implement and popularize new and valuable teaching strategies, methodical and organizational solutions. The paper presents an area of experiences that stimulate academic teachers to innovative didactic work. Methods: In a qualitative research conducted with the use of a theoretical-methodological approach of Gruber (1989) titled The Evolving Systems Approach to Creative Work (ESA). In it, the author applied a case study and conducted an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to contents deriving from semistructured interviews carried out with 13 academic teachers-innovators that for at least 5 years invented/implemented new strategies/methods/techniques/programes/didactic aids in the process of teaching-learning with students. Results: Such experiences of didactic work as: positive emotions accompanying the process of inventing and implementing creative didactic solutions, good feedback from students, reaching educational goals, and encouragement from: students, co-workers, and significant persons make up the “self-propelling mechanism” for creativity in didactic work. Conclusions: Each stage of didactic work: from idea through implementation of the solution to its popularization is connected with pleasure and satisfaction taken by teachers. It makes them eager to continue their work in the form of various activities that create an internally related “weave of actions.” Thus, teaching in a creative way becomes a “self-propelling mechanism” thanks to which it is also subject to a process of continuous evolution of it.

Celem opracowania jest przedstawienie głównych założeń teorii The Evolving Systems Approach to Creative Work wypracowanego przez amerykańskiego psychologa Howarda E. Grubera i jego współpracowników oraz uczniów. Autorki opracowania zainspirowane tym podejściem wykorzystują je w swoich badaniach do nakreślenia ram teoretycznych, zdefiniowania przypadków oraz wyjaśnienia i interpretacji doświadczeń badanych osób w prowadzonych indywidualnie badaniach, dotyczących twórczej pracy polskich reżyserek i nauczycieli akademickich wdrażających nowe rozwiązania dydaktyczne do procesu kształcenia ze studentami. Autorki przedstawiają w artykule fragmenty relacji z procesu analizy i interpretacji danych pochodzących z wywiadów jakościowych oraz analizy dokumentów związanych z twórczą pracą badanych osób.

Celem artykułu jest prezentacja wyników badań nad doświadczeniami nauczycieli akademickich w twórczej pracy dydaktycznej w aspekcie dotyczącym jej ewolucji na przestrzeni lat. Badania zostały przeprowadzone przy wykorzystaniu podejścia teoretyczno-metodologicznego The Evolving Systems Approach to Creative Work Howarda E. Grubera. Analiza i interpretacja zebranego materiału badawczego pochodzącego z wywiadów semistrukturyzowanych, analizy treści publikacji oraz analizy zdjęć z zajęć dydaktycznych prowadzonych przez badanych nauczycieli pozwoliła wyróżnić dwie fazy w rozwoju twórczej pracy dydaktycznej: pierwszy – intuicyjny, związany z poszukiwaniem „własnej drogi” w obszarze wybranych podejść/metod/technik kształcenia i drugi, związany z „odnalezieniem przestrzeni dla twórczych rozwiązań dydaktycznych” oraz typowymi dla tego etapu: przejściami między rolami”, a także progresem i transferem wiedzy i umiejętności dotyczących proponowanych rozwiązań.

Methodological Approaches

The methodological approach used in any research decides the nature of knowledge the research is creating. Understanding the cardinal importance of methodological approach used in any research, this article attempts to review some of the research papers in ‘Marketing' domain and analyses the same with respect to methodological approaches. Based on the critical assessment of these papers, the article further draws some conclusions regarding how ‘Marketing' domain has been evolved with respect to research methodologies. Literature gaps are identified. One of the major challenges for management research is that the theories or frameworks proposed by researchers in management discipline are not implemented actually in practice. As a result, there is a huge gap between academic research and industry. This article tries to propose a solution to this problem by suggesting that marketing research should focus on systems approach in addition to other approaches. Conclusions are drawn based on the analysis. The limitations of the present study are also discussed.
