Purpose
- To serve the needs and promote the interests of LRA members invested informative experiments (FE) and design-based research (DBR) as a
- methodological approach to literacy research.
- To create a supportive, dialogic community of researchers confronting problems, issues, and challenges related to this approach and who wish to share their successes and failures, thus increasing collective wisdom and developing a network of resources.
- To clarify the parameters of this approach toward developing useful frameworks for conceptualizing, planning, conducting, and reporting FE and DBR.
- To develop and promote standards of rigor for designing FE and DBR and in collecting and analyzing data.
- To promote discussions about the fundamental purposes of literacy research, particularly the relation between research, practice, and the enhancement of human well-being.
