How to Navigate the Ocean of Information in Educational Research?
Researchers deal with bibliographic research on a daily basis and are experts in retrieving the information they need. Yet, there exist many literature services and they sometimes are not explicit about their scope of publications. Educational research often calls for a transdisciplinary and transnational state of knowledge, which is distributed - and occasionally hidden - in several databases. To avoid getting lost in searching but instead successfully navigate the ocean of information, a combination of knowledge about various databases, retrieval methods and search strategies is needed. As there is no one-stop solution in information seeking, the choice of databases, search engines and academic social networks remains an individual and research-related decision.

Curriculum Research Methods: Studying Curriculum in Its Different Forms and Across Levels
The renaissance of both curriculum making and curriculum theorisig could be seen across Europe. It is highly desirable that this renewed interest in curriculum is accompanied by empirical research into different forms of curriculum existence. This workshop will introduce several methods for analysing curriculum at different levels – from transnational to national, regional, school and classroom level.

Methodological Approaches to Research on Multilingualism and Language Education: Assessment of language competencies
The workshop will address the issues of language assessment in linguistically diverse contexts. It aims to focus on both relevant dimensions of language assessment: the dimension of instruments’ development and the dimension of data analysis. The purpose is, therefore, to introduce and critically discuss the challenges of developing new instruments for parallel assessment of multiple languages, the reliability and validity of newly developed instruments as well as the comparability of tests across different languages. It will also address the relevant aspects of integrating language assessment into the research design.
