The findingsof the study demonstrated the importance of research experiences for the preparation of eventualgraduate students with themes related to network access and the role of the institution infacilitating intellectual experiences. Identity-trajectory explores multiple influences on identitysimultaneously allowing for interdependencies andThe example study is an engineering education doctoral dissertation that used identity-trajectoryto explore the development experience of graduate students in optics and photonics. The three strands of identity-trajectory enables a rich and detailed analysis of thecomplex nature of identity.
#Theoretical framework in education research professional
The network strand examinesthe professional relationships, organizations, and collaborations that contribute to professionalidentity. Theinstitutional strand explores on the institutional influence on an individual’s development basedon their institutional affiliation, role, and responsibilities therein. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the theory, provide examples of its practicaluse in an engineering education study, and introduce future research questions for engineeringeducation that can be explored through this theoretical approach.The intellectual strand focuses on the contributions of an individual to their specific field.
Identity-trajectory is a newer paradigm inidentity literature used to explore, through time, the professional identity development ofgraduate students and emerging academics through three strands: intellectual, institutional, andnetwork. Inengineering education research identity frameworks enable researchers to introduce strategies toimprove teaching and learning in the discipline. Thesetheories have been used as a means to understand student belonging, and student development. Identity-trajectory as a Theoretical Framework in Engineering Education Research (ERM - Research)Identity theories are a growing framework of interest in engineering education research.
