A Joint Study for a Standardization and Multi-focal Developments of Constructionist Qualitative Research Methods

我们共同研究的成果有三个方面。首先，在连续三年的学习会议中，有100多名学者参加，我们成功地分享了许多关于建构主义研究的技术和见解，这些技术和见解在这些会议上没有报告和讨论。其次，基于这些报告和讨论，我们追踪了目前建构主义研究的主要方法论问题，并合作编辑了一本论文集《建构主义作为方法》，通过一种模型研究来展示这些问题和可能的答案（该书将于2013年9月出版）。第三，从这些联合活动中获得信息并受到其激励，我们的研究成员分别发表了论文和书籍，以建构主义调查的方式展示了经验或理论作品。

The achievements of our joint study are three-fold. First, in the course of consecutive study meetings in a three-year period that involved more than 100 scholars, we successfully shared many techniques of and insights on constructionist researches, which would lie scattered without reports and discussions at those meetings. Second, based on those reports and discussions, we tracked down main methodological issues of constructionist researches at present, and collaboratively edited a collection of essays named Constructionism as Methods, that shows those issues and possible answers to them by presenting a sort of models studies (the book will be out in September, 2013). Third, getting informed from and motivated by these joint activities, members of our study have individually published papers and books that present empirical or theoretical works in the vein of constructionist inquiry.
