I attended a conference where a sensei asked the presenter, your research is based on what theoretical background? https://padlet.com/allyty/researchdesignquestions/wish/3512071801

What if my research topic has no related theory in a Japanese context?

I think I am not even sure about what the sensei meant by Theory in that conversation.

Ethnography & Action Research or Comparative Case Study only?


The topic would require classroom observations in Japan and the Philippines. Interviews may be conducted online to save time and resources.
