This open access book discusses challenges in school improvement
research and different methodological approaches that have the
potential to foster school improvement research. Research on school
improvement and accountability analysis places high demands on a
study's design and method. The potential of combining the depth of
case studies with the breath of quantitative measures and analyses
in a mixed-methods design seems very promising. Consequently, the
focus of the book lies on innovative methodological approaches. The
book chapters address design, measurement, and analysis
developments as well as theoretical and conceptual developments.
The relevance of the research presented in the chapters for
educational accountability is discussed in the book's discussion
chapter. More specifically, authors present one specific innovative
methodological approach and clarify that approach with a concrete
example in the context of school improvement, based on empirical
data when possible. In this way, this book helps researchers
designing complex useful studies.
