The aim of the project is to design a method for developing curricula that will incorporate findings from educational media research and allow them to be applied in practice. To this end, tools, processes and standards that can be used to address relevant stakeholders in education policy-making, and that will aid knowledge processing, transfer and impact assessment are being developed in modular form and tested as prototypes. The focus is on reciprocal exchange in the sense of policy advice with stakeholders from the fields of education policy and school practice, with the aim of making the content of future curricula more long-term, sustainable and quality-based.

Project Structure
The project is based on an understanding of transfer as reciprocal and focussed on the exchange of ideas and information, with the aim of adequately addressing the needs of all stakeholders and maintaining a relevant and up-to-date knowledge base about the needs of policymakers and education practitioners. LPP is designed to be iterative and participative. The aim is to achieve a productive feedback effect that will flow into future content and thus potentially also into the research itself.

Module Development
In order to realise the objective, tools, processes and standards for providing policy advice will be created in a modular format ready for needs-based application, and consultation skills and expertise will be expanded and consolidated. The interrelated modules that will be developed during the project will cover the following areas:
- Understanding the processes: creating the knowledge base
- Internal communication: raising awareness of the specifics of transfer processes
- Building networks: identifying target groups and developing innovative dialogue formats
- Needs-oriented formats: putting consultation into practice
- Assessment: reflection and evaluation of transfer processes and findings
The Exploring Markets project was also supported by the project funding line of ‘Innovation and Orientation in Research’.
