Virtual Education: Formations and Transformations of Educational Knowledge (‚Bildungswis-sen‘) (B03)

• Subject Area: General Education and History of Education
• Term: since 2022
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 470106373

The research project B03 researches knowledge practices of university studying in an ethnographic-contemporary and a historical subproject. For selected humanities disciplines, ideas of proper study as well as practices of acquiring, organizing and examining knowledge are reconstructed. The question is how which kind of knowledge is processed, structured and, as knowledge about knowledge, becomes „educational knowledge“ („Bildungswissen“) and thus a component of changing knowledge cultures.
