Toolbox dialogue approach - td-net toolbox proifle 12 Pohl, C. 2020
This publication describes the toolbox dialogue approach and is part of a series of tools and methods compiled in the td-net toolbox for co-producing knowledge. The toolbox approach is a tool to uncover implicit assumptions and shared understandings of scientific disciplines and to oppose them to the thought styles of other disciplines.
The toolbox dialogue approach consists of a set of questions and statements (i.e., the “toolbox”) that are used to trigger dialogue in a workshop format. It helps researchers become aware of their own (disciplinary) thought style and the (disciplinary) thought style of their collaborators.
