The tasks of the research workshop include

1. counselling and support

In the research workshop, students and teachers are given comprehensive advice on their research projects (i.e. with regard to planning, implementation and evaluation modalities). This also includes advising students on the empirical parts of examination papers.

2. adaptation and further development

The research workshop works on "translating" scientific research methods, making them more accessible and thus more manageable for "research novices".

3. communication and integration

The research workshop sees itself as a place where students and teachers can come together to discuss research projects.

Experiences about completed research projects can be exchanged.

4. documentation and evaluation

In the research workshop, research results of individual groups and persons (with their consent) are made available to others.

The staff of the research workshop evaluate research activities in order to gain insights into how action research projects can be promoted and expanded in the school sector.
