Mapping ELT stage to TPS elements and pedagogical functions

ELT stageTPS elementPedagogical function
Concrete experience (CE)Executive Lecture and Part I (Insights)The high-quality, external executive stimulus ensures the research starts from a non-biased, high-fidelity problem source
Reflective observation (RO)Part I (Unresolved problems) and Part II (Problem statement)Students filter the executive discourse to identify anomalies and knowledge gaps, directly serving as the basis for the problem statement in Chapter 1
Abstract conceptualization (AC)Part IV (Theoretical connections)This is the direct input for Chapter 2 (theoretical framework), requiring the student to link the practical issue to formal frameworks, thereby demonstrating theoretical acuity
Active experimentation (AE)Part III (Research questions) and Part V (Reflective summary)Part III formulates the testable plan (the theory-generating hypothesis), and Part V closes the learning loop by assessing the idea's practical relevance and contribution
