**Case Study: NASA Collaborative Transformation Assignment**

During and before the Apollo program years at NASA, it was the primary government organization involved in all space technology decisions. Since the Space Shuttle Program, NASA has been reinvented. It transformed from a closed system with a hierarchy that develops its technologies internally, to an open and collaborative network that promotes innovation and collaboration with other public and private organizations. NASA has become more interdependent.

Using the Moon to Mars Mission (Artemis-Orion), describe this new collaborative approach at NASA.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

Collaborative Governance Networks Literature:
A Thematic Analysis

PADM 804
Intergovernmental Relations and Intergovernmental Management

Permission granted by Professor Goktug Morcol,
Penn State University-Harrisburg

Presented at the ASPA Conference 2019

Questions Professor Morcol Asked
• What has been the general trend in publications about collaborative governance

networks?

• What were the most popular areas in the collaborative governance networks
applications?

• What were the leading countries in collaborative governance networks
applications?

• Which journals published papers on collaborative networks?

• Which theories, if any, did the collaborative governance network researchers used?

• What were the general methodologies and analytical methods used by researchers?

Data Collection Source and Method
• We present the preliminary findings of our content analyses of the scholarly

articles on “collaborative governance networks” (CGN).

• We collected articles from ProQuest.

• In our searches, we used the following keywords:
• Collaborative governance
• Collaborative network
• Governance network
• Network governance
• Collaborative public management
• Collaborative public administration

Data Collection and Source for Analyses
• Our searches yielded:

• 1532 scholarly articles published in English, between 1977 and 2017.
• We found other sources (books, dissertations, government

publication, newspaper articles, etc.) too, but we excluded them from
our analyses.

• Of the 1532 articles, we have read/analyzed 644 so far.
• Of the 644, we found 619 relevant to be included in our analyses.

• The remaining 25 articles either did not include sufficient
information or they were misidentified (e.g., they were initially
selected because they included the names of professional networks)

• We read and coded the titles and abstracts of the papers and the journals they were
published in.
• The following analyses are the results of our analyses of these fields in the

spreadsheet.

General Trend in Publications on CGN

• CGN publications increased significantly in the 21st century.

Collaborative Governance Networks Literature:
A Thematic Analysis

PADM 804
Intergovernmental Relations and Intergovernmental Management

Permission granted by Professor Goktug Morcol,
Penn State University-Harrisburg

Presented at the ASPA Conference 2019

Questions Professor Morcol Asked
• What has been the general trend in publications about collaborative governance

networks?

• What were the most popular areas in the collaborative governance networks
applications?

• What were the leading countries in collaborative governance networks
applications?

• Which journals published papers on collaborative networks?

• Which theories, if any, did the collaborative governance network researchers used?

• What were the general methodologies and analytical methods used by researchers?

Data Collection Source and Method
• We present the preliminary findings of our content analyses of the scholarly

articles on “collaborative governance networks” (CGN).

• We collected articles from ProQuest.

• In our searches, we used the following keywords:
• Collaborative governance
• Collaborative network
• Governance network
• Network governance
• Collaborative public management
• Collaborative public administration

Data Collection and Source for Analyses
• Our searches yielded:

• 1532 scholarly articles published in English, between 1977 and 2017.
• We found other sources (books, dissertations, government

publication, newspaper articles, etc.) too, but we excluded them from
our analyses.

• Of the 1532 articles, we have read/analyzed 644 so far.
• Of the 644, we found 619 relevant to be included in our analyses.

• The remaining 25 articles either did not include sufficient
information or they were misidentified (e.g., they were initially
selected because they included the names of professional networks)

• We read and coded the titles and abstracts of the papers and the journals they were
published in.
• The following analyses are the results of our analyses of these fields in the

spreadsheet.

General Trend in Publications on CGN

• CGN publications increased significantly in the 21st century.

management/policy, local government/urban studies, and water resources management.

• The leading countries in CGN applications are the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia.
• Others joined them in the 21st century.

• CGN papers have been published mainly in the leading public administration and ecology
journals.

• Only 20-25% of CGN papers used any kind of theory.
• Most of these are actually conceptual frameworks.

• The largest numbers of papers are single and comparative case studies and conceptual
discussions.

Overview

You will complete 6
**Case Study Assignments** throughout this course. Below you will find the instructions and description assignment.

**Instructions**

· Provide a Biblically based support for your analysis

· Sources must be derived from Read items assigned for the Module: Week in which the Case Study is assigned, peer-reviewed journal articles, and your independent research.

· All citations and format must be in current APA format

· Include 8 – 10 sources, not including your Biblical analysis

· Double-spaced, with 1-inch margins, written in 12-point Times New Roman font.

Below is a chart with each
**Case Study Assignment** and the Module: Week it is due.

**Case Study: NASA Collaborative Transformation Assignment**

During and before the Apollo program years at NASA, it was the primary government organization involved in all space technology decisions. Since the Space Shuttle Program, NASA has been reinvented. It transformed from a closed system with a hierarchy that develops its technologies internally, to an open and collaborative network that promotes innovation and collaboration with other public and private organizations. NASA has become more interdependent.

Using the Moon to Mars Mission (Artemis-Orion), describe this new collaborative approach at NASA.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

Theory in the CGN Literature

• We defined “theory” broadly: conceptual
frameworks and well-developed theories.

• Even then, we could identify 88 articles (our
of 619) that used some theory.

• The most frequently used theories are
actually conceptual frameworks:
• Collaborative governance
• Governance networks
• Democratic decision-

making/participation
• Complexity/complex systems

General Methodological Approach by Decade

• Case studies have been the most prominent methodological approach.

• Literature reviews declined over time.

• Conceptual discussions became more prevent in recent decades.

Analytical Methods Used by Researchers

• Very few paper abstracts specified their
analytical methods.

• SNA, regression, content analysis, and
agent-based simulations are the most
prominent analytical methods.

Summary of Findings
• CGN publications increased significantly in the 21st century.

• The most popular areas of CGN applications are environment/ecology, healthcare
management/policy, local government/urban studies, and water resources management.

• The leading countries in CGN applications are the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia.
• Others joined them in the 21st century.

• CGN papers have been published mainly in the leading public administration and ecology
journals.

• Only 20-25% of CGN papers used any kind of theory.
• Most of these are actually conceptual frameworks.

• The largest numbers of papers are single and comparative case studies and conceptual
discussions.

• Very few papers used analytical methods.
• The most frequently applied methods are social network analysis,

regression analyses, and content analyses.
