Abstract
This chapter describes how an Educational Design Research (EDR) approach
was employed to design a context based professional development (PD) program
tested in practice to support teacher educators to integrate ICT in their teaching
of pre-service primary school mathematics teachers in Ethiopia. In addition, the
researchers’ experience of using EDR to develop and design a context based PD
program that was responsive to a particular context and stakeholders is described.
The chapter is organised in four sections. It begins with a description of EDR in
the background section followed by an illustration of the process of choosing the
right methodology carefully in the second section. The third section illustrates the
processes of conducting EDR along with challenges in using EDR. The final section
presents the potential of using EDR in educational setting. In each section, the points
made are illustrated by describing how the principles and philosophical roots of
EDR were attended to in the research project showcased.
