This Research Profile forms the meeting place for practice-based pedagogical research that is carried out in association with the university’s pedagogical professional education and training. The profile is multidisciplinary and involves research into education in various organisational forms.

The research looks at education as a present-time and historical vocation, with teaching, learning, discipline and caring as central objects of study. Leadership in pedagogical praxis, as well as the physical and pedagogical milieu in which the praxis is conducted, comprises particular fields of focus. To this belong media in teaching (texts and others) from a user perspective as well as research into how various educational objectives meet the reality of teaching from the perspective of the user as well as research into how different educational assignments meet the reality of education in practice. General didactics as well as aspects of subject didactics are highlighted within these focus fields.
