“…Initial accompanying studies and evaluations of federal and regional funding programs (e.g., DKJS, 2012aDKJS, , 2012bHuber, Kilic, Schwander, & Wolfgramm, 2014;Meinecke, Schalkhaußer, & Täubig, 2009;Projektleitung "Selbständige Schule," 2004;Stolz, 2008;Tippelt, Dobischat, Hagen, & Nuissl von Rhein, 2006) have provided some initial ideas and indications of what causes municipal educational landscapes to succeed or fail. Other national studies on local educational landscapes have mainly shed light on potentials, cooperative work, and cooperative networks in and around school networks or local educational landscapes, and the organizational structures within them (e.g., Berkemeyer & Bos, 2010;Berkemeyer, Kuper, Manitius, & Müthing, 2009;Huber, 2014aHuber, , 2014bHuber, Ahlgrimm, & Hader-Popp, 2012;Lindner et al, 2015aLindner et al, , 2015bNiemann, 2014;Olk, 2015). Not until recently has the empirical spotlight also been shone on the users of local educational landscapes (e.g., Wüstenrot Stiftung, 2015).…”
