Offer description:
CIEB, the Centre for Research in Basic Education, is a research unit applied to the specificities of basic education, understood as a fundamental basis for learning and the development of societies.
The CIEB is centred on a holistic vision of education that articulates the curriculum, the initial and ongoing training of teachers and educators, collaborative work with contexts, pedagogy and specific didactics, and applied research, with the aim of promoting innovation and the quality of students’ learning and the development of professionals.
The mission stemming from this vision of education is to develop pedagogical intervention projects centred on cooperative support for the learning of students and their families, promoting their educational and social success through training and collaborative work with professionals, and building and developing a systematised body of technical-scientific knowledge that can be used as a reference and fundamental basis for designing, implementing and evaluating intervention projects/programmes and educational change.
