OnTrackNorthAmerica has cultivated an inquiry-based approach to thinking that empowers researchers to envision innovative projects and produce workable solutions that stakeholders embrace. Researchers can use the following IntelliSynthesis questions as a guide when creating proposals, project designs, action plans, and solutions.

A. Purpose: What issues in the field are we inspired to research, given our areas of interest, concern, and expertise?

  1. What is the problem in the field that we want to contribute to solving?
  2. Why is this problem significant?

B. Conception: What conception of our project would lead us to generate optimal results?

  1. What needs to be changed, transformed, or advanced?
  2. What dynamics do stakeholders indicate are problematic?
  3. What needs to be understood about the problem?
  4. Who must be involved to inform our understanding of the problem?
  5. Who would benefit from the solution?
  6. How do we measure the implications of the problem and the solution?
  7. Who do we want to educate (which stakeholder groups) about our observations, discoveries, and inventions?
  8. How do we conduct this education?

C. Design: How do we want to design our work?

  1. How will we know we have accomplished our purpose?
  2. What can we study and produce to enrich stakeholders?
  3. What tools and methods are available to develop the solution?
  4. What new tools and methods should we develop?
  5. What factors should we consider when determining the time for completion?
  6. What resources can we gather for this project?
  7. What partners can we establish for this project?

D. Implementation: How will we execute our plan?

  1. What are the steps of our game plan?
  2. Who is on our team, including academic, government, industry, non-profit, and community partners?
  3. What are each team member’s responsibilities?
  4. What dialogues with which stakeholders and team members will advance our understanding and solutions?

E. Dissemination: How can we best present our work for maximum uptake?

  1. Which audiences do we want our work product to reach?
  2. What documents, content, spreadsheets, and models would be most helpful?
  3. How do we prepare and present this information to partners and stakeholders so that it is accessible to the broadest audience?

Principles:

  1. Project conception and design require more input and guidance from industry-experienced individuals.
  2. Project execution then needs more direct dialogue with stakeholders in the field.
  3. Academic rigor does not preclude tailoring material to be understood by stakeholders.
  4. Language and writing need quality editing to communicate effectively with stakeholders.
  5. Data, formulae, and methods must be explained and well-formatted to be usable by primary stakeholders.
