Research, Evaluation, Practical Solutions

Findings from current research, evaluation results, and practical recommendations - those are our services for students, instructors, and professionals in education.

For our target groups we tackle the following research areas and challenges:

• Students
  How can new findings from educational research be applied in teaching and further education? How can self-regulated learning be supported? How can self-directed and social competencies be furthered? And how can domain-specific and generic competencies be combined?
• Teachers in schools and vocational education
  Which competencies are necessary for teachers to become experts concerning their disciplines as well pedagogical skills? How should educational processes be designed and which methods can be used? Which demands are connected with blended learning, technology-enhanced or self-regulated learning?
• Professionals in education
  How can educational institutions and units be managed effectively and efficiently? How can change and innovation processes be accomplished successfully? How can educational processes within corporations be designed, their quality be assured, evaluated, and managed? How can educational programmes, institutions and elements of the educational system be designed and controlled to match current economic and pedagogic demands?
