Empirical educational research
We present our research area in more detail
The Department of Empirical Educational Research deals with questions of the interplay of social change, system changes, heterogeneity and inequality as well as the prerequisites for educational processes in different educational systems at different levels of the educational system. One focus is on empirical school research, whereby macro-systemic approaches and questions of school development are examined in particular. The other focus is on issues relating to the design of teacher education and practice from an international comparative perspective, with particular emphasis on Europeanization, continuity and professionalization.
