Resonating with reflexive design: On participatory design, narrative research and crystallization
In this article, we further explore the idea that educational design, and subsequently educational design research, are in essence dialogical processes in which problem statements, strategies and interventions, and their implementations are realized in co-creation between different stakeholders. We elaborate on the idea of reflexive design as stated in the article of Richter and Allert (2017) by exploring three deepening thoughts on the characteristics of such dialogical design processes. First, we further relate reflexive design to the concept of participatory design to see if we can use insights from this approach on when and how co-creation can take place. Second, we explore the merits of narrative research as a way to include multiple voices in the process of reflexive design. And third, from a methodological point of view we explore the idea of crystallization as a way to collect data and validate findings within reflexive design research processes

Design Principles for the Professional Development of Teacher Educators: Illustrations of Narration, Dialogue and Self-study
Teacher education has been recognized increasingly as a profession that fundamentally differs from teaching pupils in schools. This has resulted in teacher educator development programs which address the uniqueness of the profession. In this article we depart from this recognition of teacher education as a profession outlining the specifics of teacher education, and we describe a professional development program for teacher educators run in the Netherlands. We describe its building blocks and three design principles – narrative inquiry, dialogue and self-study – and illustrate their value by examples of evaluations taken from the program.Bregje de Vries: [email protected] de Vries - Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the NetherlandsAnja Swennen - Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the NetherlandsJurriën Dengerink - Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the NetherlandsBerry, A.

Mind map our way into effective student questioning: A principle-based scenario
Student questioning is an important self-regulative strategy and has multiple benefits
for teaching and learning science. Teachers, however, need support to align student
questioning to curricular goals. This study tests a prototype of a principle-based scenario that
supports teachers in guiding effective student questioning. In the scenario, mind mapping is
used to provide both curricular structure as well as support for student questioning. The fidelity
of structure and the process of implementation were verified by interviews, video data and a
product collection. Results show that the scenario was relevant for teachers, practical in use
and effective for guiding student questioning. Results also suggest that shared responsibility
for classroom mind maps contributed to more intensive collective knowledge construction
