    Mixed Methods and Triangulation in History Education Research


Empirical research in history education involves exploring complex and multifaceted contexts, requiring researchers to adopt methodologies that embrace this complexity. Mixed methods and triangulation offer valuable opportunities to address the limitations of partial research approaches and provide a more comprehensive understanding of historical education phenomena.

This special series in the History Education Research Journal presents a collection of peer-reviewed, high-quality articles focusing on the theoretical and methodological dimensions of mixed methods and triangulation designs in history education research. The series aims to inspire innovative research practices and foster deeper insights into the field.

The collection highlights diverse perspectives and innovative applications of mixed methods and triangulation in history education research. Originally published as a special issue in 2019, edited by Roland Bernhard, Christoph Kühberger, and Christoph Bramann, as of now it features articles from researchers across seven countries: Australia, Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

Researchers interested in contributing to this evolving field are encouraged to submit their work for peer review, specifying its relevance to this collection, now curated by HERJ Editorial Board member Roland Bernhard. To submit to the journal, click here.
