Abstract

The session is about the integrated cohort study on educational careers in primary and secondary education (COOL5-18). In this study, three waves of data collection are conducted among 5 to 18 year old students, consisting of the assessment of mathematics and reading comprehension performance, citizenship competences, and a wide range of social-emotional characteristics. Also, students’ school career data are collected, for example grade repetition, track transitions, drop-out, etc. Moreover, student background data are available, collected by parent questionnaires. The aim of the symposium is to present several papers from different perspectives, showing the many aspects and possibilities that a cohort study like COOL5-18 can offer to researchers.
