实践研究:创新知识和方法的范式

PRACTICE RESEARCH:A PARADIGM FOR THE INNOVATION OF KNOWLEDGE AND METHODOLOGY

通过回顾“北大-土人”实践研究的模式以及遇到的种种挑战,作者总结了三点思考:1)实践研究的意义在于在不断的尝试中积累经验,最终获得有用的知识和解决实际问题的方法;2)实践研究主体一般为院校教师、科研机构的研究员、学生,以及在实践一线的规划设计师,但国内现行的学术考核方式过度追求论文引用而非实践成就,甚至有着深厚研究传统的规划设计研究院也鲜有时间精力对实践中的问题进行深入探讨,以致模式套用成风;3)规划设计实践的充分市场化才是实践研究可持续发展的不竭动力。“原型研究”作为实践研究的一种,将有助于不断拓宽景观设计学科的发展路径,为设计师及相关领域的学者提供前瞻性的设计思路和更具韧性的工作方法,以适应充满不确定挑战的未来。

In this article,the author concluded the patterns and challenges of practice research by Peking University-Turenscape into the answers to three questions:1)By conducting practice research,people can gain the knowledge and methodologies to address authentic practice issues with constant attempts;2)College faculties and students,researchers,and planners/designers are the agencies of practice research,but they are in dilemma because of the over pursuit for paper publication and citation in academic performance assessment,and the insufficient time and budget for research leading a fact that generic planning schemes and stereotypes are popularly employed;And 3)the healthy development and long-term promotion of practice research relies on the growth of the market-oriented industry.As one type of the practice research,“prototype study”offers a paradigm for the innovation of knowledge and methodology.Oriented to future challenges and uncertainties,it would help extend the horizon of Landscape Architecture,providing designers and scholars with prospective design insights and flexible working methods.
