Social Studies Education

The Social Studies Education research group aims to boost knowledge of teaching methodology in the school subjects of geography, economics, history and civics. In addition, it conducts applied research to expand this knowledge. It does so for the benefit of education in the aforementioned subjects and for the training of those teaching these subjects. The professorship is part of a cooperation between four universities of applied sciences (4FF), namely the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS, which houses the professorship), HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht, University of Applied Sciences Windesheim and Inholland University of Applied Sciences.
