Transfer Research

For example, the institute addresses the following questions:

• How can scientific findings and innovations from educational research and information be transferred and implemented in practice?
• How can the transfer process be organised and the exchange between science and practice be promoted?
• What contributes to or influences the success of transfer activities?
• Which barriers and challenges need to be overcome in order to implement evidence-informed measures in educational practice?

Within the framework of transfer research at DIPF:

• studies are conducted, providing a systematic overview of the forms, work processes and effects of partnerships between science and practice in the education sector in Germany and other countries 
• successful, i.e. practically relevant and quality-driven educational programmes are developed and evaluated
• the institute's research and infrastructure services are scientifically monitored in order to record their benefits in practice and to create the conditions for successful implementation
