Who Have These Methods Worked With

In practice, support of teachers can be enhanced, for example, by a concrete cooperation time and place for teachers (Vähäsantanen et al., 2008), training to adopt and further develop collaborative working methods (Craft, 2005) and technological solutions to monitor learning situations (Arvaja et al., 2009). Teachers face social demands for more creative, collaborative and effective education, but they do not feel always well equipped to achieve these goals (Kampylis et al., 2009; Moran, 2010).

This setting must address all collaboration spheres: integrating the different disciplines and collaborating with stakeholders. This empiric study explored one such complex case of · This study provided empirical evidence of eight essential components necessary for the IKT and interdisciplinary collaborative process and a team's effective operation in an environmental health research project.

Research on technological partnerships has traditionally sought explanation of their high failure rates in partner characteristics and relationship fe…

Collaboration between academic institutions typically forms when a Primary Investigator invites Junior researchers to help carry out various components in the research methods of an already funded project. Collaboration between institutions creates mutual benefits through the sharing of often expensive and limited resources, like specialized equipment and broader study participants. For Senior researchers, these partnerships often offer fortuitous insights and unique viewpoints that enrich the research process and ultimately improve the project’s outcomes.

In particular, the jump from k = 0 to k = 1 is remarkable, showing that the probability of spontaneous activation in the absence of previous contacts (k = 0) is much lower than that of activation through collaboration (k \(\ge\) 1). We observe that the higher the number of contacts, the larger the probability. Most of the growth occurs for low values of k. To put these numbers in context, we consider a simple baseline \(C_\text {base}(k)\) where we assume each contact has a constant, independent probability of producing a topic switch. Within each topic, we compute the difference between the curves for each value of k (see “Methods”) over all reference years and plot them below the x-axis.

Along these lines, some qualitative methodologists, and anthropologists in particular, have begun embracing ethnographic approaches in implementation (e.g., Bunce et al., 2014; Greenhalgh & Swinglehurst, 2011; Morgan-Trimmer & Wood, 2016; Thirsk & Clark, 2017). Ethnography is characterized by “close engagement with a social group over time” and typically makes use of multiple methods, e.g., observation and interviews, to ensure triangulation (mixing) of data sources (Finley et al., 2018).

The contribution analysis lens ... causal claims about the contribution RPPs make to observed outcomes allowing us to draw conclusions about whether RPPs are a promising approach in the English care home context. By contrast through realist methods, we can probe in greater depth the different ways in which the CCP partnerships may implement ...

WHO is working to promote access and use of contraception by producing evidence-based guidelines on safety and service delivery and on ensuring human rights in contraceptive programmes. WHO assists countries to adapt and implement these tools. Additionally, WHO participates in developing new contraceptive technologies.
