Within our research group, we focus on student motivation, cognitive and non-cognitive development in higher education contexts, and higher education for equity and sustainability. We aim to offer novel insights into students’ cognitive and non-cognitive development, equal educational opportunities, and associated teaching practices to feed innovations in higher education.
