Questions Arising from Transdisciplinary Experience
Christian Pohl's working paper at http://www.transdisciplinarity.ch/e/Publications/ suggests several criteria for evaluation (and provides references to further sources):
· Broadness: What range of disciplines, methods, phenomena [theories], and actors were embraced? How innovative and suitable were the choices?
· Is the need for integration justified?; Is the integrative process and what was integrated clearly explained?; [several more detailed questions regarding assessing grant proposals are provided]
· Are there opportunities for reflection in the research?
· Has the problem been well described and a reasonable answer provided? [again there are more detailed questions for reviewing a grant]
