“…There is also conceivable to apply iterations to the ADR method at stage one and two. This will give the possibilities of further developing knowledge and practices about adoption of employee-driven digital innovation in the organization and how introduction of digital tools to support it can be done [22]. This building of knowledge and practices will also contribute to the reflection and learning in stage three in the ADR method.…”

Innovation is important for development in the private sector, but inevitably public sector also needs innovation to enhance services and processes, with research on employee-driven digital innovation in public organizations being limited. We propose a study in a public organization based on action design research (ADR) methodology to enhance theoretical knowledge and develop practice in relation to employee-driven digital innovation. This research-in-progress study follows the divided stages of ADR, where the stage of problem formulation is to be conducted through semi-structured interviews. Findings from stage 1 will provide knowledge about the phenomenon with a public organization as a context and make up the problem definition within ADR. The stage of building, interventions and evaluation is to be conducted with interventions in focus groups where we will investigate how to increase adoption of employee-driven digital innovation and how introducing digital tools can support employee-driven digital innovation as an innovation practice. The study aims to contribute by creating general solution concepts about employee-driven digital innovation.

“…Our research process's stages are similar to the ADR model by Mullarkey and Hevner [24], who adapted and complemented Sein et al's [32] initial approach. Mullarkey and Hevner's [24] model contains four overarching stages: diagnosis, design, implementation, and evolution. In the diagnosis stage, we identified the practical problem, which generally comprised the need for the city of Duisburg's digital transformation, and several related sub-goals, after which we started gathering the most relevant theoretical explanations.…”

“…In the course of the initiative, the different parties together developed a masterplan as well as the standards and principles used to establish the initiative. We started our research work in the case city with a thorough diagnosis which we outline in the following section, structured in line with the ADR cycles by Mullarkey and Hevner [24].…”

“…We follow the action design research (ADR) approach, defined by Sein et al [32], because it reflects the way we took part in designing the initiative and since ADR (see 3.1) is suited to guide the creation of artifacts like the described SC initiative from the very beginning. Our approach is similar to the ADR model proposed by Mullarkey and Hevner [24], who extended Sein et al's [32] ADR model by presenting the cycles as a series of discrete and well-defined interventions and by including the creation of cycle-specific artifacts [24]. Thus, the paper is structured as follows: Section 2 introduces the concepts related to a SC and its governance.…”

Smart cities are characterized by heterogenic stakeholders, many layers of authorities, complex decision-making processes, and competing objectives. As a result, they require a sophisticated and wellplanned governance regime. We describe the development and design of a governance regime which is grounded on IS principles as well as the resulting governance structure in a medium-sized city in Europe. Using the action design research approach, we designed, implemented, and revised in multiple iterations an ensemble artifact consisting of the governance structures and processes for a smart city initiative. Our empirical observations highlight challenges of coordination, communication, and innovation in this smart city and report on how we implemented and adjusted the governance regime accordingly. Our results are a first step towards general recommendations for the design and implementation of Smart City governance regimes in medium-sized cities.

This study proposes design science research (DSR) as a relevant framework for computational thinking, software engineering, and science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics integration in higher education. We present four concrete case examples, where DSR has been applied in projects that consist of interdisciplinary teams, which learn by designing solutions for pressing real‐world problems. Our results show that DSR is a potent framework for learning to tackle pressing and wicked problems, and connecting technology projects with research methodology and knowledge from other fields. Our results also show multiple learning gains, including creativity, communication, critical thinking and collaboration. Based on our case analysis, we recommend more extensive use of DSR in future technology curricula.
