▼ The importance of quality and efficient education sector has attracted a lot of attention both in terms of academic work and political commitment in developed countries. In contrast, there has been little work done concerning efficiency of the education sector carried out in African countries. Zambia today is no exception; there is an increasing demand for more secondary school education to match the needs of a growing population in Zambia. A lack of adequate resources presents a binding constraint. The efficiency with which available resources are being utilized is another challenge that cannot be overlooked. The high school education sub-sector (Grades 10-12) has not expanded since the 1970s (FNDP 2005). There is an added problem of poor performance among schools. Pass rates at Grade 12 level is consistently below 70% since 2000. Weaknesses in the operations of schools undermine their service coverage potential even in situations where funding is not the main constraining problem resulting in a poor service delivery system. The study used stochastic frontier analysis and data envelopment analyses which are parametric and non parametric methods respectively to calculate efficiency score for each school. The parametric specification estimated technical efficiency assuming exponential distribution. The non parametric specification used constant and variable returns to scale in calculating efficiency. School level data from Examination Council of Zambia and Ministry of Education respectively was used. We used School enrolment and number of pupils who obtain Grade 12 School Certificate as outputs. Recurrent expenditure, number of classrooms in a school, Pupil teacher ratio and book- to- pupil ratio were used as inputs. The average technical efficiency measured by the stochastic production frontier method is 82% for enrolment. The DEA mean efficiency score is 77% and 65% for pass rate and enrolment respectively. We did not obtain technical efficiency scores for pass rate using SFA because it failed to display the asymmetric error term required to model inefficiency. Also one hundred and thirty observations out of two hundred and one observations have consistent rankings between SFA and DEA. The rank order correlation coefficient of efficiency is 0.66 between the two methods. This study has demonstrated that inefficiency of resource use in schools is significant. The unsuitable scale of operation of secondary schools can be used as a productivity control tool. Policy attention is drawn to the rank order correlation coefficient which suggests that using either DEA or SFA is sufficient to identify efficient schools.

▼ Tinjauan awal terhadap pelajar di Kolej Kemahiran Tinggi MARA (KKTM) Sri Gading mendapati 66% pelajar yang dikaji bersependapat bahawa topik Perimeter, Area and Volume merupakan topik geometri yang paling mudah. Peratusan ini bertentangan dengan 57.3% yang gagal dalam ujian Mathematics I. Situasi pelajar tidak memahami konsep matematik ini memberi kesan kepada motivasi dan kepuasan pelajar belajar matematik. Justeru, kajian kesan pengintegrasian origami dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran geometri ini dicadangkan bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti tahap motivasi dan kepuasan pelajar setelah melaksanakan pengajaran dan pembelajaran geometri yang diintegrasikan origami. Projek melibatkan kumpulan kawalan dan kumpulan rawatan terdiri daripada 35 orang pelajar. Instrumen kajian yang digunakan ialah Course Interest Survey (CIS) yang dipelopori oleh John Keller (1987) dan The New World Level I Reaction Sheets yang dipelopori oleh Jim Kirkpatrick (2008). Nilai Alfa Cronbach untuk kedua-dua instrumen tersebut ialah 0.892. Data tahap motivasi dan kepuasan yang dikumpul dianalisis untuk mendapatkan nilai min dan sisihan piawai, ujian-t, kesan saiz serta korelasi menggunakan perisian SPSS Versi 24. Data penilaian pelajar pula dianalisis mengunakan perisian Microsoft Excel untuk mendapatkan nilai Indeks Purata Akademik (IPA) dan Course Assessment Report (CAR). Dapatan kajian menunjukkan nilai min tahap motivasi kumpulan rawatan yang diintegrasi origami adalah 3.1779 lebih tinggi berbanding min tahap motivasi kumpulan kawalan. Nilai min tahap kepuasan juga berada pada tahap tinggi iaitu 3.2286. Nilai korelasi Pearson, r= .802 menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang tinggi antara tahap motivasi dan tahap kepuasan kumpulan rawatan. Terdapat perbezaan pencapaian akademik antara dua kumpulan tersebut dengan nilai IPA 2.76 bagi kumpulan rawatan. Pengintegrasian origami dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran geometri berperanan besar sebagai satu alternatif inovasi dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran ke arah meningkatkan tahap motivasi, kepuasan dan pencapaian pelajar dalam matematik.

▼ In the 21st century, engineers are expected to be creative and work collaboratively in teams to solve or design new products. Research in the past has shown how creativity and good team communication, together with knowledge, can impact the outcomes in the organization. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships among creativity, engineering knowledge, and team interaction on senior engineering design product outcomes. The study was conducted within the College of Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering, at Colorado State University. A purposeful sampling of 55 students who enrolled in Mechanical Engineering Design capstone course completed the instruments during this study, which included the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT) Figural Form A, and a pre and post Team Climate Inventory. Students were assigned to twelve design project teams at the beginning of the fall term, 2011, and the project outcomes were evaluated in the spring of 2012, during the senior design showcase. Eleven professional engineers and three graduate students were trained to evaluate the senior design outcomes. The students’ engineering grade point average (GPA) was used as a proxy to represent engineering knowledge. Descriptive statistics were utilized to describe the sample in terms of their engineering GPA, creativity score, and team interaction score. Correlational analyses were executed to examine the relationships among the constructs of the study. At the design team level, results from this research indicate that there was no statistical significant relationship between the teams’ creativity composite score and the design outcome. There was also no statistical significant relationship between the team interaction score and the design outcome. The team composite creativity score had no significant relationship with the team interaction score. The composite of team engineering knowledge had no significant relationship to the team interaction score. At the individual level, the correlation analysis indicated there was no statistically significant relationship between student engineering knowledge and the creativity score. Exploratory data analysis (EDA) was used to assess the interaction of the main constructs on the engineering design outcome. The EDA results indicate that only one team met the hypothesis that a team scored above average on engineering knowledge and creativity, and a positive team interaction climate would expect to score above average on their design outcome score. Two design teams scored above average on creativity and engineering knowledge, and positive team interaction climate yet scored below average on their design outcome, which went against the original hypothesis. One design team scored above average on their design outcome, but scored below average on the other three main constructs of the study. The remaining eight design teams did not show any consistent pattern of relationships among the three constructs and the design outcome score. This research adds to the body of work…

M.Ed.

The Technical Colleges are important links between the community and industry since it is eminently responsible for the academic training of mid-level manpower, namely artisans and apprentices. The responsibility of Technical Colleges is to make post-school education available. This post-school training is offer with a view to the practice of a career and is geared towards any school leaver, who requires practical-orientated career training. Technical Colleges offer training on a continual basis where the differentiated secondary school system ceases to prepare students to be able to practice a career, trade-or professional skill in commerce and industry. The technical college focuses on career training aimed towards the practice, which is market orientated and set towards job opportunities. With reference to the aforementioned mission of the Technical Colleges, it becomes essential that theory becomes reconciled with practice in order to apply practice-orientated career training. III This study is aimed at compiling a syllabus for Fitting and Machining Theory (N 1N3) at Technical Colleges on a scientific basis, which will comply with the demands and needs of the community and industry. The study has been carried out on the ground that a need has been established during an ATC (Association of Technical Colleges (now Committee of Technical College Principals CTCP) seminar for the curriculum development of the subject Fitting and Machining (N1-N3) at Technical Colleges. The researcher, as chairman of the CTCP sub-subject committee for Fitting and Machining (N1-N3) as well as Tool, Jig and Die Maker's Theory (N2 and N3) undertook this study with the approval and support of the CTCP under the direction of the University of Pretoria. The dissertation was eventually finalised and completed at the Rand Afrikaans University. A literary study has been undertaken in order to be able to choose a curriculum model based on the opinions of a number of curriculum experts. This should be useful in setting a direction according to which the present Fitting and Machining Theory syllabi (N1-N3) at Technical Colleges can be developed. The research includes the distribution of scientifically based questionnaire, which were sent to selected respondents, as well as with structured interviews. This was done to pinpoint the similarities between and the differences in the Fitting and Machining syllabus at Technical Colleges and the training schedules in the Metal Industries. The purpose with this information which has been computerised and processed by the Department of Information Management, Section: Research and Training Support, at the University of Pretoria is to compile well-founded syllabi for Fitting and Machining (N1-N3). It is nonetheless imperative that the curriculum development of Engineering Studies syllabi at Technical Colleges be developed on a regular basis and in co- IV operation with the industry with cognisance of technological development in order to offer career training in the real sense of the word.

M.Ed.

Peoples' daily actions is a display window of their values. In the same way are the creations of people, whether it is art, cultural or technology creations, a reflection of what people (creators) regard as beautiful, meaningful and useful - that which they value. The presence of dualism in the values of educators appears to create confusion in relation to the value orientation of young people. Continuous, rapid changes in all walks of life could be seen as a possible reason for the confusion in relation to values that young people in South Africa are currently experiencing. Economic improvement, the result of technological development, resulted in secularisation as well. Secularisation is responsible for the superficialisation in the value-orientation of people. This superficialisation persists and although the "right things" are said in the education process, it appears from the actions of the very same educators, that other things are right and acceptable. The problem statement of the research is that it is not determined yet that through the integration of values to the learning content of school curricula, the value orientation of the learners could be established and enhanced. In lieu thereof the aim of the study was to determine whether the ethical value orientation of learners can be enhanced by an integrated learning programme. A case study consisting of action research was done. A qualitative research approach was followed and focus group interviews were conducted as a data collecting method. Empathy, an ethical value, was integrated to the learning content of Afrikaans Seconds Language and were taught through following an interdisciplinary approach between Technology and Language, Literacy and Communication. The results of the study shown that as a result of the close interwoveness within valueorientations, not only was empathy intensified, but other values were sensitise too. Although only two learning areas were involved in the case study, it is recommended that values be integrated to the learning content of all learning areas at school level.

▼ Modern civilizations have evolved to be highly dependent on electrical energy. The exponentially growing renewables market has signaled transitions in electricity sectors that have traditionally been dominated by fossil fuel electricity. Various theoretical debates have recently emerged surrounding the processes of socio-technical transition, focusing on the pathways of transition, the levers for radical change and path-dependencies within these systems. The Multi-Level Perspective on Socio-technical Transitions is one such theory. This perspective views socio-technical change as a factor of interdependent shifts between three analytical levels observed within the system: the socio-technical regime, the socio-technical niche and the landscape. In accordance with this theory, radical change is generally observed as originating at niche level. Irregularities within the dominant regime and landscape pressures allow for niche innovations to break through into the dominant regime in processes of socio-technical transition. Toward understanding actor influences on energy transitions, considerable attention has been paid to actor's impact on governance processes through: patterns of consumption, the shaping of legislation and technical innovations, by socio-technical transitions theories. However less attention has been paid to the ways in which actors in renewable electricity markets are: forming networks toward the establishment of new regimes and governing processes at niche level, and consequently how actor governance has impacted the established perceptions and available pathways for realizing electric security. This thesis, builds on the Multi-Level Perspective, through an exploration of how actors govern socio-technical systems at niche level, paying careful attention to the modalities of power giving and power taking that allow for the development of networks of people and things toward the stabilization of novel socio-technical practices, innovations and developmental trajectories. It does this through a networked analysis of how different actors with different interests cooperate to open up innovative social and technological pathways.

▼ In its broadest terms, this dissertation seeks to explore the conditions for the possibility of human flourishing beyond mere survival through the study of narrative identity. It is grounded in the notion that our understanding of narrative identity can affect human relationship: personally, culturally, and globally, and can move us beyond mere survival into a more flourishing life. In this project, I explore the strengths and shortcomings of the traditional theory of narrative identity as developed by narrative theorist Paul Ricoeur. Although Ricoeur understands that our lives become more readable and understandable when considered through narrative, he neglects the ways in which gender, class, and race affect our ability to create our own narrative identities. Such identity categories also affect the ways in which we relate to others. I turn to Luce Irigaray’s theory of sexual difference to build upon and extend Ricoeur’s theory of narrative identity, making it more flexible, pertinent, and useful. In Chapter One, I introduce the reader to the theoretical backgrounds of Paul Ricoeur and Luce Irigaray. In Chapter Two I introduce narrative identity and what it means to look at our lives in terms of narrative, especially when viewed in terms of the Flourishing-versus-Survival Continuum. In Chapter Three I explore the benefits, concerns, and critiques of mapping narrative elements, particularly Mimesis, onto human existence. Chapter Four addresses the difficulties of identity through Ricoeur’s twin concepts of idem and ipse identity. I introduce the double gyres of circularity to illustrate the relationship between self and other and our need for the other in order to exist as a self. In Chapter Five I assert that while Ricoeur recognizes our need for the other in order to exist as a self, he neglects to examine the ways in which we revolve around the other. Irigaray’s theory of sexual difference addresses this shortcoming, thereby extending the theory of narrative identity and making it useful for personal, collective, and global transformation. In the Conclusion I illustrate how narrative identity can be useful for transformation, using examples from the classroom, an international tutoring center, and family life.

▼ Clarke County, Georgia, has a higher average number of students who do not complete high school than for the state of Georgia as a whole. Only 70.1% of the 834 eligible students in Clarke County earned a high school diploma in 2010. It is noteworthy that almost 60% of the students in Clarke County high schools are African American and more than 70% are economically disadvantaged. Only 69.5% of students in the economically disadvantaged subgroup and 64 % of African American students graduated (Georgia Department of Education, 2010a). The purpose of this causal comparative study was to compare the academic achievement of 11th grade economically disadvantaged African American students based on gender and CTE concentration completion status. Academic achievement was determined by scores from the state of Georgia High School Graduation Tests (GHSGT) in mathematics and English language arts (ELA) using eighth-grade Criterion Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT) in mathematics and ELA as covariates to adjust for academic achievement levels prior to CTE exposure in high school. Statistical procedures used for this study were Pearson’s correlation coefficient to determine if a correlation existed between CRCT scores and GHSGT scores and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to compare academic achievement in mathematics and ELA, as measured by the Georgia High School Graduation Tests, for economically disadvantaged African American students based on the interactive effects of CTE concentration (completion versus non-completion) and gender. Results showed a high correlation between the eighth and 11th grade tests. There were no statistically significant interactive effects of CTE and gender; however, the main effect results demonstrated that males demonstrated more growth in mathematics than females in high school. Conclusions can be made that CTE may serve as a catalyst for achievement but there are multiple factors that need to be considered especially when at-risk groups are involved.

▼ The purpose of this study was to assess the challenges of TVET Colleges in Benshangul Gummuz Regional state. The study has been conducted in two governmental and two non-governmental TVET Colleges. The trainees, trainers, College management bodies, and Regional TVET experts were the main sources of data for the study. Stratified random sampling approach was employed in selecting the trainers and trainees. Questionnaires, interviews, observation check list, focus group discussion, and document analysis were the instruments used for the collection of data. The data obtained through questionnaires were analyzed using statistical instruments like percentage and weight mean values. The data are analyzed and interpreted quantitatively as well as qualitatively. The results obtained from the study suggest that the TVET Colleges in the region are not supplied with qualified and skilled trainers and lack machines, equipment, workshops, libraries, classrooms, books, and other facilities. Furthermore, findings reveal that lack of adequate facilities, shortage of skilled manpower, lack of awareness regarding TVET strategy, lack of adequate budget, and lack of commitment of concerned bodies are challenges of TVET colleges in the region. Besides, Colleges are not well organized and have not enough resources to implement current TVET curriculum. Lack of skilled trainers, lack of facilities and machinery and weak internal organization are major challenges of trainees in the college while, unsuccessful Center of Competency (COC) exam, competing with others and lack of employers are expected challenges for trainees. There is no professional guidance and counseling in the colleges and trainees cannot decide their opportunity and will have job. Lack of cooperative training and COC assessments is not employed and these have an effect on quality training. Finally, Based on the findings and conclusions, the following points were recommended to address the existing challenges in the Region under study: Staff development in the Colleges; internally organized TVET systems in the region and TVET institution; and raise social awareness about the importance of TVET in the region for all societies should seriously be considered. Necessary facilities should also be fulfilled. In addition, tracery studies should be carried out before providing training, and trainees have to be encouraged in self-employment. Besides strengthening the labor market information system; establishing and enhancing technology transfer department; enhancing supervisory and professional support; offering opportunities for further education for trainers; and establishing professional guidance and counseling services are issues to be addressed.

▼ This study set out to assess the link of automotive technology program and labor market demand in Tigray region: the cases of four selected TVET institutions, and thereby forward possible suggestions for the improvement of link of automotive technology and labor market demand in these training centers. To achieve the objective of the study the basic questions are taken as a base. The skills of graduates comparing to labor market demand, TVET capacity in using labor market information, relationship of TVET training center with employers, satisfaction of employers and graduates in the provision of practical training, and understanding of employers in the program of TVET training are employed in the study. To assess the situations, four TVET institutions were selected using random sampling method out of eight TVET institutions which were providing automotive training in the region. Descriptive survey method was employed, the reason being that it could help to gather a large variety of data related to the subject under investigation. To gather the necessary data graduates of three consecutive years starting from 1999/2000-2002/03 E.C. were included. Moreover; trainers, management members and supervisors from selected institutions and regional TVET Bureau are included in the study using purposive sampling method. And graduates were traced by using snowball sampling. In addition to this, employers and coordinators of micro & small enterprises are also interviewed using convenience method. As data gathering instrument questionnaire, interviews and observation were used .The results of the study showed that, graduates of automotive technology were not equipped enough in practical training, employers and graduates are not satisfied in the practical training of the TVET institutions, there is a gap in between TVET institutions and employers ,and labor market information system was underutilized, etc. Hence, the study recommended these selected TVET institutions of Tigray region should better improve the provision of practical training rather than theory, employ labor market information effectively, and work cooperatively with the employers etc. Advisors/Committee Members: Wanna Leka (advisor).

▼ This thesis examines a combined technical signal approach (CSA) on four stock index implied volatility indices for the aim of day trading the underlying stock indices. The purpose is to determine whether excess returns derived from the use of a combined technical trading strategy are statistically significantly different than zero. The null hypothesis is that the average daily rate of excess return of the strategy, for every underlying stock index is zero; the alternative hypothesis is that the average daily rate of excess return of the strategy, per equity index, is different than zero, both before and after trading costs and dividends are considered. A two-tailed z test is utilized to test the statistical significance of the difference between the annualized mean daily rate of excess return of the day trading strategy and zero. For every implied volatility index, all available data is utilized to determine the persistence of excess returns over a robust timeframe, the total available sample period. White's Reality Check Test is applied to each excess return series, first by utilizing the moving blocks bootstrapping method, to determine whether mean excess returns are statistically significantly different than zero, regardless of the shapes of the original distributions of excess returns. This research also tests whether each distribution of excess returns for each of the four daily traded stock indices conforms to a normal distribution using the Jarque-Bera goodness of fit to normality test, before and after transaction costs and dividends are considered. Three different trading strategies are compared: a volatility based CSA that utilizes the momentum approach to day trading, an equity based CSA that utilizes the mean reversion approach to day trading, and a buy and hold approach. A final measure of performance, the Sharpe Ratio, is utilized in order to determine which strategy has the highest risk adjusted returns. Advisors/Committee Members: Mallory, Mindy (advisor).

M.Ed. (Curriculum Studies)

It has become imperative for trainers who deal with technical training to keep pace with progress in the technological world. The purpose of this research is to make a penetrating analysis of modular competency - based technical training. The determination to raise the quality of education probably contributed largely to the sharp focus on a clearly specified goal determination and on a specified target formulation. From this competency - based training originated. Modular training focuses on the ability of the learner to master specific skills. In other· words the training programme comprises a set of learning objectives that are clearly defined so that they can only be attained if speci.fic actions are carried out. The training method to be followed is designed and structured as accurately as possible so that the learner will be able to attain the required level of competence. The most ~mportant characteristic of a modular competence-based training programme is that the learner is expected to master all the learning objectives set for a particular occupation. A further characteristic of a modular competence-based training programme is that th~ individual learner will be held responsible for the successful mastery of learning objectives, while the trainer manipulates and uses external conditions in an attempt to ensure that the learner will attain the required level of mastery. The nature and extent of certain competencies depend on the learner's ability to master a skill rather than simply on his ability to demonstrate theoretical knowledge. Specified competence for a particular occupation consists in mastery of the skills considered of special importance in that occupation (Opperman,1988:4/5). The programme content is structured in definable teaching modules and these modules are arranged in a continuous progressive training system in which progress is based on compliance with measurable performance criteria. A teaching module is a complete instructional unit.

▼ In my thesis I discuss the cost effectiveness of usability testing of technical documents and how any size company with any size budget can implement usability testing. Usability is achieved when the people who use products or technical documents can do so quickly and easily to accomplish their own tasks. Usability testing is best defined as the process of studying users to determine a documentation project's effectiveness for its intended audience. Users are tired of dealing with confusing and unintuitive technical documentation that forces them to either call customer service for help on simple issues or throw out the product in favor of one that is more usable or provides better technical documentation. That is why all technical communicators should include usability testing as part of the technical documentation production cycle. To help technical communicators understand the importance of usability testing, I discuss the cost effectiveness of usability testing and share ways that companies with large budgets and companies with small budgets can begin incorporating usability testing. Then I provide information on all the steps that are necessary for technical communicators to implement usability testing of technical documentation at their company. Options are presented for everything from bare minimum usability testing with a shoe-string budget with pencils, note pads, and only a handful of users to full scale usability testing in large laboratories with the latest equipment and a wide variety of users. The research provides examples from real companies, advice from experienced technical communicators and usability experts, and research demonstrating how many resources are truly required to benefit from usability testing. By showing technical communicators that usability testing is cost effective and that there are many options for implementing usability testing no matter how large or small their budget is, I hope to empower technical communicators to start including usability testing as part of the documentation production cycle at their companies. Advisors/Committee Members: Flammia, Madelyn.

▼ This project presents a mixed methods analysis of proposal editing in sponsored research administration at U.S.-based universities. As sponsored research funding has become increasingly competitive, universities have sought to support their faculty and research infrastructure by offering proposal editing services as a component of the proposal development process. However, the relative newness of proposal and research development as fields, combined with prior studies that show a general lack of research into proposal editing and faculty perceptions of proposal development resources, mean that these areas can benefit from additional focused research. This study aimed to answer two primary research questions: How do universities approach and offer proposal editing as a component of the proposal development process, and what are faculty reactions to editing services as a resource during that same process? The study consisted of two components: a survey of 32 faculty members' perceptions of editing services as an element of their proposal development, and interviews with ten research administrators and editors to discuss how editing services function within the proposal preparation process. Despite a small sample size and disciplinary homogeneity, the survey results showed that demand for institutionally provided editing services varies by research field and activity level, but that faculty showed noticeable interest in at least having the option of an editor reviewing their proposals prior to submission. Interview participants agreed that faculty who are new or early in their careers, along with faculty who speak English as a second language, are especially interested in receiving editing services. Editors themselves provide various levels of edit, dependent on their own backgrounds, editing timelines, and faculty receptiveness to the edits. When provided, edits focus on compliance and grammar, but deeper edits help academic styles of writing transition into more persuasive grant writing styles to strategically position the proposal. As proposal editing services become more widespread as a way of supporting faculty and increasingly proposal quality and success, universities should implement editing services according to faculty demand and needs. Careful implementation can ensure that editing services fully support faculty while making a meaningful impact on a university's research development strategies and goals.

▼ Research workflows in higher education have converged onto digital formats. While the technology to store data has improved at an increasing pace, personal and organizational behaviors have not adapted as rapidly. The study sought ways to communicate digital preservation skills to researchers to improve the permanency of their research data. This study proposes three temporal contexts digital ? short-term, long-term and trans-generational. Study questions asked selected participants about how they manage their digital data. The study used Diffusion of Innovation theory concepts within an Activity Theory construct and the Open Archive Information System to model key areas of transformation. The key areas were determined by analysis of interviews, surveys and institutional data. The model provides a new way to understand the complex set of issues that can inhibit data preservation. The study used descriptive statistics and social network analysis to elaborate ways to transmit new data preservation attitudes and behaviors more effectively. In particular, the data management plan requirement for National Science Foundation grant submissions was found to be a potentially powerful motivator for a limited number of researchers. The study found that there is an opportunity for the institution to create group activities, such as workshops, that specifically include faculty with NSF grants and those who share other grant submission experience with them. The study also found that information technology staffs need to understand research problems from the researcher perspective better to overcome some trust issues. Finally, campus leadership needs to identify their role in addressing the issue for the long-term benefit of the institution. Strategic goals are an important first step. Building a robust digital preservation environment is an iterative process dependent on many perspectives. The goal of this research is to speed the process by developing a systems-level model for exposing problem areas.

▼ This dissertation presents three essays on the structure of technical collaboration in the development of new products and innovations. The first essay examines the mirroring hypothesis, or the claim that the structure of a product development organization "mirrors" the architecture of the product it develops. The mirroring hypothesis posits that independent contributors develop largely independent components, while richly interacting contributors develop richly interacting components. I report the results of a systematic review of the evidence on mirroring and draw from those results to explain when and how real-world organizations violate the mirroring hypothesis. I focus on the case in which independent contributors make richly connected contributions. To explain this phenomenon, I introduce the concept of actionable transparency. I also elaborate the more complex organizational patterns that emerge in lieu of genuine mirroring when people apply actionable transparency to "break the mirror." The second essay examines the generality of the mirroring hypothesis in the context of open collaborative software development. Specifically, it investigates the question: "Are most open collaborative software development projects large enough to exhibit support for the mirroring hypothesis, insofar as it implies that projects with more, and more equally contributing, developers beget more modular codebases?" The study employs conventional statistical methods and focuses on the initial product releases of 142 C/C++ projects from SourceForge. Contra conventional wisdom, results indicate that mirroring is not a strong general property of open collaborative development, but rather that it is only present to any substantive degree in exceptionally large projects. The third essay is co-authored. It presents quantitative and qualitative evidence regarding the evolution of technical collaboration networks. Specifically, it explores why the collaborative ties between inventors in Silicon Valley aggregated into one massive regional network more quickly than the ties of peers in Boston. In interviews with a theoretically motivated sample of inventors, we found that Silicon Valley inventors identified more specific examples of firm-spanning knowledge flows, but inventors in both regions reported similar experiences and attitudes more generally. Results suggest a unique institutional explanation: a single post-doctoral program at IBM explains about 30% of the Valley's early network aggregation.
