Driven by personal concerns

Horizons No. 145

Researchers can be personally affected by the topic of their research. Like the educational scientist with family roots in Algeria who has experienced anti-Muslim racism at first-hand and has made it her research topic. She and four other researchers discuss how they deal with such overlaps between the professional and the personal.

Horizons No. 145 (in German)
  • Personal involvement in your own research
  • Truth by numbers
  • “It’s impossible to analyse a dataset without making certain assumptions”
  • The potential pitfalls of the subjective turn
