The purpose of the project is to generate significant new knowledge on the strengths and weaknesses characterizing the different models of vocational education and training (VET) at higher secondary level in the Nordic countries.
The network wich includes the Nordic countries Sweden, Iceland, Norway and Finland will provide interdisciplinary studies on the impact of school lunches on health and learning conditions among children in a Nordic setting.
The main objective of the proposed four year project (January 2013 - December 2016) "Learning spaces for inclusion and social justice: Success stories from immigrant students and school communities in four Nordic countries" is to draw lessons from success stories of individual immigrant students and whole school communities at different levels that have succeeded in developing learning contexts that are equitable and socially just. In the project, students´ success is defined as social as well as academic success.
The aim of the project is to deepen understanding of the institutionalized fostering of values in Nordic preschools at the theoretical, methodological, and empirical levels.
Den nordiske forskning om uddannelse, som er gennemført i første fase af NordForsks uddannelsesinitiativ, har holdt et meget højt, videnskabeligt niveau, viser ny evalueringsrapport.
Med et opslag under ”Nordisk-britisk forskningsinitiativ for migration og integration” modtog NordForsk ikke færre end 218 ansøgninger. NordForsk har besluttet at finansiere 7 forskningsprojekter med til sammen 87 millioner NOK.
Planen er, at 5 eller 6 infrastrukturkonsortier, eller såkaldte hubs, skal finansieres, og til foråret 2020 bliver det besluttet, hvilke projekter der får finansiering.
