How to develop a framework

One way of developing framework: come out with a framework without obvious methodogic approach. For example, Prof Dr Badrul Huda Khan said his E-learning Framework was not based or grounded on any research, instead from listening and understanding the needs of students.
The framework becomes highly recommended and recognized, and then he wrote books about the model.

Another way of developing a model or framework is like doing the process-based design of NRGS Programme led by UPSI.

To me and my postgraduate students, herewith what I suggest for developing a  framework:
1. Review literature on issues and key concepts associated that may form a framework.
2. Develop provisional guiding principles for ideal practice.
3. Structure a provisional framework based on provisional guiding principles.
4. Define all key concepts used in the provisional framework.
5. Design and develop instrument(s) to validate the framework.
6. Validate the instrument(s)
7. Validate the framework through empirical studies using the validated instrument(s)
