The UAH School of Education develops different research lines directly linked to the problems of equity, inequality, and quality of the school system, in order to make a contribution to the educational system and public policies.
A contribution to the scientific development of the field of education
These lines consider pedagogical researches promoted from the different Departments which make up the School. The purpose of the research is to contribute to the scientific development on the field of Chilean and Latin American education and, especially, to contribute to the enhancement of the school system in view of social justice and equity of educational results of children and young people.
This experience allows, in turn, developing studies that contribute to the decision-making process for the design and evaluation of educational policies at national and international level.
