5 Research Articles and Questions - Eulho

Joseph, R & Reigeluth, C. M (2005). Formative research on an early stage of the systemic change process in a small school district. British Journal of Educational Technology, 36(6),937–956

Research Questions:
  1. What guidelines of Event 3 worked well in this particular district-wide effort?
  2. What guidelines did not work well in this effort, and should they have been omitted
    or revised for this effort? If they were or should have been revised, what revisions
    worked well, or would likely have worked well, in this effort?
  3. What new activities should have been used in this effort?
  4. What criteria were most helpful in judging what ‘worked well’ in this change effort?
  5. Given the changes that improved or would likely have improved the process used in
    this effort, which ones might be beneficial to incorporate into the GSTE? And what
    ‘situationalities’ (contextual aspects of a particular case, see Reigeluth, 1999) may
    influence when any guidelines should and should not be used or what the guidelines
    should be like?
Reigeluth, C. M (1987). The search for meaningfulr reform: A third-wave educational system. Journal of Instructional Development, 10(4), 3-14

Carter, M.Z., Armenakis, A.A., Field, H.S. & Mossholder, K.W. (2012). Transformational leadership, relationship quality, and employee performance during continuous incremental organizational change. Journal of Organizational Behavior.
  1. Hypothesis 1(a-b):Relationship quality will mediate the association of transformational leadership with employee
    (a) task performance and (b) OCB.
  2. Hypothesis 2(a-b): Change frequency will moderate the positive association of relationship quality with (a) task
    performance and (b) OCB, such that the positive association will be stronger when change frequency is high.

  1. It looks like you have a lot of WHAT questions in your area of interest...
    The last one is interesting. I have to wonder, with your emphasis in inquiry, and your interest in quantitative or mixed methods, what are some ways you can utilize or include your quantitative skills? Think about marketing yourself for the job you want.
