Reviews

This book has been prepared to guide researchers who are embarking on a design and development research in instructional technology. These will also include emerging researchers and graduate students in the field of education, computer science, and information technology. It propagates design and development research (DDR) or design-based research but is not limited to specific deliberations on the methodology.
