معرفی
Ronny Scherer is Center Director and Professor at CEMO (Center for Educational Measurement) and Deputy Director at CREATE (Center for Research on Equality in Education) at the University of Oslo's Faculty of Educational Sciences. His work bridges educational measurement, assessment, and evaluation with a focus on research syntheses and complex sampling surveys.
Dr. Scherer's research spans two interconnected domains: substantive areas including digital divides, equity and equality in education, and measurement of complex cognitive skills (such as complex problem solving, adaptability, computational thinking, and executive functioning); and methodological areas focusing on advanced meta-analytic techniques, multilevel structural equation modeling, and spatial analysis of complex survey data. His work frequently utilizes international large-scale assessment data from PISA, ICILS, TIMSS, PIRLS, PIAAC, and TALIS.
His publication record demonstrates a clear trajectory toward increasingly sophisticated meta-analytic approaches, with recent work focusing on second-order meta-analyses, AI-assisted screening methods, and advanced techniques for handling complex survey data. His research consistently addresses critical educational challenges related to equity, digital literacy, and measurement of 21st century skills.
Dr. Scherer has secured significant research funding for projects including ARISE (Academic resilience in mathematics and science among vulnerable students), DiDiRes (Digital inequalities in education), and ADAPT21 (Educational assessments of the 21st century: Measuring and understanding students' adaptability in complex problem solving situations).
- Co-director of CREATE (Centre for Research on Equality in Education) since 2023
- Professor of Educational Assessment and Measurement at CEMO since 2019
- Extensive experience with international large-scale assessments including ICILS, TALIS, and PIAAC
As an educator, Dr. Scherer teaches advanced courses in measurement models, multilevel models, meta-analysis, and equity in education. He actively supervises graduate students interested in his research areas and has developed numerous workshops on structural equation modeling and meta-analytic methods for international audiences.
