Evaluation Studies Centre
The Evaluation Studies Centre is operating in the framework of
research areas of education and psychology. In its core, the Centre is
concerned with the evaluation of the school system, of its parts and
of the system as a whole, while pursuing the objective of ameliorating
the educational system in order to achieve optimal effects for
individuals, classes, schools, and communities by having its
members actively participate in interrelated areas. The Centre’s
research team is focusing on the promotion of equal educational
opportunities, thus encouraging the development of all individuals
participating in the process of education. By dealing with the material
scope of studying factors influencing the reduced possibility of
gaining knowledge in students and their well-being (through their
internal states and behaviours), we (also) expand our capacities to
the field of mental health. The core concepts of our field are related
to the social and emotional aspects of learning and teaching from the
point of view of both students and teachers. The group builds on
knowledge and experience obtained through numerous research
projects and on increasing international cooperation, mostly through
the possibility of jointly shaping pan-European guidelines of
ameliorating and evaluating the learning process.
The content of our research:
social and emotional factors of learning and teaching, well-being;
the positive development of young people in various contexts;
a transformation medium, exploration of the meaning behind
curricular reform and of numerous other curriculum-related
concepts.
