The paradigm that most closely relates to this the INMP research article would be the theoretical framework of Interpretivism, more specifically Constructivism.  Within this paradigm,  learning is active and continuous, as demonstrated by the on-going 'negotiations' within classes utilizing the INMP program as well as the outcomes that follow the project.  The central purpose for research within this paradigm is to 'Understand'.  What Raby, Kaufman & Rabb (2012) do is introduce, explain and provide

Raby, R., Kaufman, J., & Rabb, G. (2012) investigate:

-How does learning occur, and what learning occurs via integrating current current events within student subject material and curriculum?

-What knowledge is gained through interaction and changing variables within the real-world scenario challenges?

-Have perspectives changed within one's understanding of the concept or subject?

-How to attract faculty and students to the program?

-To demonstrate the need and importance of such a program within the college system.

-Link technology and global participation with informed, workplace ready students.

-To understand the knowledge and ideas that come from human interaction

The International Negotiation Modules Project (INMP), takes enhanced learning to the next level. Students receive the ever so key exposure of international knowledge while utilizing technology.  As a result, it is shown that students are able to relate real world issues within a range of topics and themes using critical thinking skills.  “Using nonconventional pairings of disciplines allows the students to develop an expertise and to formulate positions and negotiating strategies in unique ways.” (Raby, Kaufman & Rabb, 2012, p. 185).  Both instructor and student gain different perspectives, experiences and confidence through cooperative engagement.  Lastly, research continues to evolve as follow-up focus groups were used to encourage participation for growth and improvement of the overall program.
