Inclusive Learning with Challenging Picturebooks

We hereby invite scholars to the follow-up project «Inclusive Learning with Challenging Picturebooks». The research aim to contribute to the development of knowledge within the following areas:

  1. Inclusive and adapted learning through interdisciplinary picturebook projects focalizing exploratory ways of working and adapted to pupils with reading and writing challenges.
  2. Inclusive education for initial training learners through shared picturebook reading, exploration, play and movement (grades 1-3).
  3. Inclusive interdisciplinary teaching with informational picturebooks (grades 1-13).
  4. Inclusive teaching, shared picturebook reading and critical thinking (grades 1-13).
  5. Inclusive Challenging Picturebooks (picturebooks analyses and/or comparative studies).

The project should be innovative and relevant to the focus of the research group on challenging picturebooks as reading and teaching materials for students from primary to tertiary education.
