GION aims to make a concrete contribution to better education by conducting academic research.
‘Better’ education is education that more positively affects the cognitive and affective development of students.
The research institute aims to expand the body of knowledge about education and to improve educational practice.
GION therefore conducts both fundamental research and contract research.
Research is conducted on topics such as
the design of learning environments, the organization of teaching, the design of quality assurance and good governance, determinants of students’ learning careers, and issues of success rates and further educational prospects.
