RESEARCH INTERESTS
My research project is conducted at an Italian speaking educational hub in South Tyrol which includes
kindergarten, primary school, middle school and secondary school and pays particular attention to
social and civic competences and relationships to the territorial community. My aim is to look more in
depth into the role of the community in the building of learning networks and to investigate the
relationship between the promotion of social and civic competences and the establishment of learning, interaction- and communication networks. The research methodology for this project is guided by
qualitative research paradigm. My research is based on a case study and uses different types of data
collection for qualitative studies, including shadowing, in-depth interviews and document analysis.
My PhD research is supervised by Professor Liliana Dozza and Professor Susanne Elsen.
