Reinventing discovery learning: a field-wide research program
Dor Abrahamson1 - Personal Name

Whereas some educational designers believe that students should learn new
concepts through explorative problem solving within dedicated environments that constrain
key parameters of their search and then support their progressive appropriation of
empowering disciplinary forms, others are critical of the ultimate efficacy of this discovery-
based pedagogical philosophy, citing an inherent structural challenge of students
constructing historically achieved conceptual structures from their ingenuous notions. This
special issue presents six educational research projects that, while adhering to principles of
discovery-based learning, are motivated by complementary philosophical stances and
theoretical constructs. The editorial introduction frames the set of projects as collectively
exemplifying the viability and breadth of discovery-based learning, even as these projects:
(a) put to work a span of design heuristics, such as productive failure, surfacing implicit
know-how, playing epistemic games, problem posing, or participatory simulation activities;
(b) vary in their target content and skills, including building electric circuits, solving
algebra problems, driving safely in traffic jams, and performing martial-arts maneuvers;
and (c) employ different media, such as interactive computer-based modules for constructing
models of scientific phenomena or mathematical problem situations, networked
classroom collective ‘‘video games,’’ and intercorporeal master–student training practices.
The authors of these papers consider the potential generativity of their design heuristics
across domains and contexts
