Research
At the Thinking Skills in School research group we aim to answer the question: how can thinking skills be effectively and efficiently learned and utilized in the classroom to benefit learning both in and out of school? We study (the interactions) between computational thinking, creativity, curiosity, and metacognition. Our research predominantly focuses on the primary school context, although we also explore these thinking skills at other educational levels and in teacher education.
