Sharing case studies

The Kaleidoscope Stakeholders Club is collating a variety of case studies which demonstrate the different perspectives of the users, presenting the different involvement of the users in the research. These cases will contribute to the elaboration of a set of "tools of best practice", enabling stakeholders to structure dialogue amongst themselves. The different perspectives are broadly categorised as: user as validator, user as participant in research, and user as stakeholder.

 

 USER AS VALIDATOR  USER AS PARTICIPANT IN RESEARCH  USER AS STAKEHOLDER
Users validating research results through successful use

Users taking part in the transformation of a research idea into a research project Users having a stake in the research as, for example, participants in a community's discussion of Technology Enhanced Learning
