Grup de Recerca en Construcció del Coneixement (GRECC)

The Knowledge Construction Research Group (GRECC) aims to deepen the understanding of how knowledge is constructed in different learning contexts. By doing so, key aspects can be identified related to the design of educational practices and how these designs create models of knowledge production which in turn, can guarantee the democratisation of education and diversity in a broad sense.

The former Research Group in Education, Neuroscience and Experimentation [GRENEA] of the Manresa Campus, has been incorporated into the dynamics of the GRECC as a research line on “Places of science and inclusivity”. It is coordinated by Dr Gabriel Lemkow-Tovias.
