As well as presenting the main findings, the paper also presents a practical research framework aimed at researchers working in the field.
Methodologically, the five research directions represent a synthesis of ideas for how the current conceptual base needs to develop in relation to the developing world of practice. They are not meant to be the agenda for future research, but an agenda to inform and stimulate current and future research activity in developing the field of project management. This paper integrates the evaluation findings based on program implementers in nine datasets collected from 2005 to 2009 (244 schools and 7926 implementers). These areas are based on a comprehensive analysis of all the research material produced over a 2-year period and represent the dominant pattern of ideas to emerge from the Network as a whole. Finding Home is a SSHRC-funded international research-creation collaboration bringing together academics, artists and migrants from Toronto (CA), London (UK) and Sydney (AU) to explore the complex intersection between forced migration and new place-making strategies through art and storytelling. In this research, designing for learner agency and equitable outcomes were identified as first-order priorities to anchor explorations of task validity. Being the first paper of this Special Issue, this paper presents the Network’s main findings: a framework of five directions aimed at developing the field intellectually in the following areas: project complexity, social process, value creation, project conceptualisation, and practitioner development. The main argument for the proposed Network highlighted the growing critiques of project management theory and the need for new research in relation to the developing practice. This report grows out of the Zinn Education Projects Teach. In 2003 the UK’s Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) agreed to fund a research network – Rethinking Project Management – to define a research agenda aimed at enriching and extending the subject of project management beyond its current conceptual foundations. Our findings, explained in more detail below, indicate that schools are failing to teach a.
