Cobb, Jackson, and Dunlap make the case that design studies are a key tool in mathematics education research for researchers to directly engineer and investigate the development of specific forms of practice involving students, teachers, schools, and districts. These studies integrate theoretical and pragmatic goals, aiming to develop generalizable findings that build theory while directly contributing to improving the quality of students’ mathematics education.
