Evaluation and Transparency

Scientists


Overview

As an element of evidence-based economic policy, the evaluation of economic policies can contribute to more effective policy-making. A precondition for this is transparency, which could be furthered in German education policy by greater comparability of educational achievement across German states and by better access to relevant data.

In times of Brexit and Trump, I have also given thoughts to the role of scientists in society, which should be neither under- nor overrated.
