What informs and directs
the development of educational research and educational science?
This contribution examines, in particular, the effects of a
nation's social requirements on the development of their educational
research. Synthesized from pre-existing analyses, the first
part works out a theoretical foundation for a description of
the process of the «disciplinarisation» of educational
science. In the second part, the content of the educational
research of the selected six national reports (Germany, France,
the Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, and Switzerland), which were
authorized by official agencies, is analyzed. With its intent
predominantly heuristic, the paper shows how the social requirements
function as regulatory mechanisms and how their influences on
the development of educational research are perceived and described.
The analysis concludes with a description and discussion of
contrasting configurations of educational research based on
a reading of the reports, and culminates in a series of theoretical
and empirical questions that encourage follow-up research. |
