This chapter begins by presenting how multimodal narratives were developed and how they have evolved in time as a research tool. Their characteristics are explained, as well as their potential for use in research studies. One important aspect discussed in this chapter is the versatility of this tool, which allows for many possible investigative approaches. In particular, it addresses how multimodal narratives can be used to carry out studies in science and technology education research. Several examples are provided of such studies that were developed within a research community which has been working with multimodal narratives for over a decade.

A high level of transparency in reported research is critical for several reasons, such as ensuring an acceptable level of trustworthiness and enabling replication. Transparency in qualitative research permits the identification of specific circumstances which are associated with findings and observations. Thus, transparency is important for the repeatability of original studies and for explorations of the transferability of original findings. There has been no investigation into levels of transparency in reported technology education research to date. With a position that increasing transparency would be beneficial, this article presents an analysis of levels of transparency in contemporary technology education research studies which employed interviews within their methodologies, and which were published within the International Journal of Technology and Design Education and Design and Technology Education: An International Journal (n = 38). The results indicate room for improvement, especially in terms of documenting researcher positionality, determinations of data saturation, and how power imbalances were managed. A discussion is presented on why it is important to improve levels of transparency in reported studies, and a guide on areas to make transparent is presented for qualitative and quantitative research.
