In: Transformation of education policy., S. 261-276
In this chapter the authors summarize the main results of the empirical studies and try to identify common patterns of IO-driven change of educational policies in different countries. They relate this synopsis to the theoretical framework and reflect on possible explanations for unexpected results. Then, the authors give a critical assessment of the theoretical framework and the case selection, regarding their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, they outline further research on the outcomes of changing education policies, which should focus on individual data on outcomes in secondary and tertiary education. (DIPF/Orig.).
