The Free University of Bozen-Bolzano is inviting applications for a scholarship which is within the Ph.D. in General Pedagogy, Social Pedagogy, General Didactics and Disciplinary Didactics for a project in collaboration with the faculty of Economics on the topic: “Building blocks as visuospatial skills training for an innovative investment on human capital”. This is a full-time Ph.D. programme and successful candidates can choose between three research areas: General Pedagogy, General Didactics and Disciplinary Didactics and Social Pedagogy. The three research areas share modules on research epistemology and on qualitative and quantitative research methods.
