More about the research
We focus on the body of knowledge underpinning the teacher profession, education policy and management in the field of education, emphasizing the coherence and discontinuity between the different areas.
Educational research can be viewed as both management science and professional science. We are concerned with the tension between these two perspectives because it illuminates the interaction between levels and actors in the field of education, as well as challenges facing schools and teacher education.
We take both a local, national and Nordic perspective in our research.
TEPEE is an inter-institutional research group between OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University and the University of South-East Norway (USN).
