Empirical history education research includes many different aspects of research in complex contexts and researchers must find ways of incorporating this complexity. Triangulation provides an opportunity to compensate for the methodological weakness of partial research approaches and to achieve a comprehensive overview.
In this context, the international symposium Triangulation in History Education Research focusses on two research questions:
(1) Firstly, we will review how various types of triangulation are or have been applied in current international history education research.
(2) Secondly, theoretical and methodological considerations of triangulation as applied in history education research will be made in general. The symposium will examine how such approaches can be applied for data acquisition and evaluation in research projects.

With this symposium, we want to contribute to the further development of methodological approaches to and critical reflections on triangulation in history education research, based on various experiences and research contexts.

The international symposium "Triangulation in History Education Research" is conducted within the framework of the project CAOHT Competence and Academic Orientation in History Textbooks (http://www.phsalzburg.at/index.php?id=1048), which is funded by the Austrian Science Fund and is organized by Christoph Kühberger, Roland Bernhard, and Christoph Bramann of the Salzburg University of Education Stefan Zweig and the Austrian Federal Center of Societal Education ('Bundeszentrum für Gesellschaftliches Lernen').

Although the main focus will be history education research, the symposium is open to interested people from all areas of educational research and social studies.

The symposium and the planned conference volume will be in English.
