Purpose

Although there is a large body of literature available on the foundations of workplace learning (WPL), little is known about designated research methods that systematically combine intervention, design and learning at work. The purpose of this study is to propose action design research as an alternative method for organizing WPL in general and facilitating pedagogically rich activities in particular.

Design/methodology/approach

This research used a case study approach to focus the action design research method and exemplify its utility through two case studies that emphasize WPL in general and how the method can be used to facilitate pedagogically rich activities in particular.

Findings

The results of the case studies indicate that the action design research method had a significantly positive effect on organizing WPL in organizations systematically, as well as creating a narrative that structures the research process and its outcomes.

Originality/value

The findings help scholars that are in need of organizing WPL research in a systematic way. The findings do also help practitioners in organizations to solve real-world problems and develop new knowledge jointly together with scholars. Consequently, the findings contribute to the existing literature by exemplifying how to facilitate pedagogically rich activities and disseminate the outcomes of doing so in a formalized way.

行动设计研究作为组织工作场所学习的一种手段：电子学习平台的案例研究

目的

尽管有大量关于工作场所学习 (WPL) 基础的文献，但对系统地结合工作中的干预、设计和学习的指定研究方法知之甚少。本研究的目的是提出行动设计研究，作为一般组织 WPL 的替代方法，特别是促进教学丰富的活动。

设计/方法/方法

本研究使用案例研究方法来关注行动设计研究方法，并通过两个案例研究来举例说明其效用，这些案例研究通常强调 WPL，以及如何使用该方法来促进具有丰富教学意义的活动。

发现

案例研究的结果表明，行动设计研究方法对系统地组织组织中的 WPL 以及创建结构研究过程及其结果的叙述具有显着的积极影响。

原创性/价值

这些发现有助于需要系统地组织 WPL 研究的学者。研究结果也确实帮助组织中的从业者解决现实世界的问题并与学者共同开发新知识。因此，这些发现通过举例说明如何促进教学丰富的活动并以正式的方式传播这样做的结果，对现有文献做出了贡献。
