Herausforderungen für die Bildungsforschung. Internationale Impulse im Kontext zeitgenössischer Steuerungspraxis im Bildungsbereich

Based on several contemporary international impulses on national educational policy, the article discusses the interaction of management and educational research, particularly indicator-aided educational reporting. First, the author scans the relevance and weaknesses of international interventions. In the light of national self-determination of educational issues, he stresses the significance of national educational reporting as well as the consideration of federal structure and regional levels. The highly complicated field of management practice also influences the construction and performance of international research – for example on the quality of educational systems.
