Your responsibilities

The University of Hildesheim, the Technische Universit盲t Braunschweig and Leibniz University Hannover have jointly acquired start-up funding for new professorships as part of the call Strengthening Empirical Educational Research in Lower Saxony (St盲rkung der empirischen Bildungsforschung in Niedersachsen), and will establish a Research Alliance for Intervention, Implementation and Transfer Research (Forschungsallianz zur Interventions-, Implementations- und Transferforschung, FI2T). In the context of research-based optimization of learning scenarios in real-world organizational settings, the Research Alliance aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of educational interventions and to identify specific conditions of their successful implementation and broad deployment. Initiating joint research projects, building up collaborative structures in order to support early-career researchers in empirical educational research, and promoting the transfer of research findings are among the core activities of the Research Alliance. Complementary to the new professorships Research on Professional Development in Education and Transformative School Development/鈥婨ducational Innovation and Change at the Hildesheim and Hanover locations, which are also involved in the research alliance, the focus of the professorship advertised here is on the (further) development of empirical research methods in the context of educational intervention, implementation and transfer research. With the aim of adapting research designs to the complex reality of education, the professorship focuses on important methodological challenges of field-valid and at the same time methodologically sound designs in the multi-level system of education with small case numbers.
