On Research Methodology of Educational Theory

Educational Scholars always attempt to construct research methodology of educational theory， with little achievement. Construction of research methodology has a precondition that all of research methods， can be used in specific theoretical research， have rational relations， unluckily lack in the current educational theory， to one another. One of the faculties of a research method is to verify a judgement. The academically legal premise of verification of a judgement is the repeatability of the research as such， whose premise is the reproducibility of the object of study. Only of the reproducible object， all the judgements can be made and can be discussed in inter-subject rational manner in the ground facts by scholars， to grow up as a system of discipline knowledge. Nothingness of research methodology of educational theory can eventually be ascribed to its object falsely set. Its object is not educational phenomenon， not educational activity， and not educational problem， but abstract educational system. The educational theory is the knowledge system of the educational system， and its research methodology is the method system to explore that knowledge system. In order to verify some judgements in that system， we have designed such two new research methods as analytics of defections of technical artifact and analytics based IIS-map， for we have conceived the educational system as the object. Naturally， grown-up of research methodology of educational theory needs more and more research experience on educational systems.
