摘要

This special issue on theorizing expertise explores how various philosophical perspectives on expertise could shape the practice research agenda by providing the theoretical rigour necessary to advance both conceptual understanding and the nature of practice. Excellent performance is underpinned by expertise so the latter has a central role in the undertaking and explanation of successful construction practice. Expertise is difficult to theorize as it spans reason and intuition, knowledge and learning, and thinking and action as well as being both an individual and collective attribute. However, such theorization is valuable as clear conceptual articulation of these diverse aspects of expertise is an essential part of the process of providing more informative and useful conceptions of practice. Improvements in the conceptualizations of practice are an essential element in addressing the demand for improved construction management. Although construction research must continually meet the requirement of ensuring that theory is relevant to practice much existing work contains unwarranted assumptions about the nature of practice. Failure to suitably conceptualize the diversity of practice leads to inadequately reflective or misguided theorizing. Without better theory reliably identifying desirable changes in practice, like those related to the appropriate use of different types of knowledge management, can be hard so philosophically grounded research into expertise has a crucial role to play in this process. Theorizing expertise also has significant implications for educational and professional development particularly in construction, such as extending and refining work on experiential learning, and so can add value in these areas as well.
