Education

Education is a wide-ranging science interested in the processes that shape and change people, both children and adults. Education research addresses issues of upbringing, education, learning and teaching, in formal and informal contexts alike. Knowledge is created about how and why values, knowledge and skills emerge, are maintained and change, and about how meaningful teaching- and education situations can be planned and realized.
