Cover des Herausgeberwerks 7. Dort­mun­der Symposium der Empirischen Bil­dungs­for­schung: „Evaluation des Bildungssystems – Welche Erkenntnisse liefern aktuelle Schulleistungsstudien?“ © Waxmann

The seventh volume in the series "Dortmund Symposium on Empirical Educational Research" is dedicated to (international) school performance studies and how their results can be used to optimise educational systems. Recording the performance and motivational orientations of learners as well as the institutional framework conditions of school teaching and learning provides a wealth of data that enables (international) comparisons between education systems and trend analyses in particular. The resulting opportunities for the further development of educational systems are examined and discussed in this volume from various disciplines of empirical educational research.
