Learning and Behavior Problems in Education: Challenges and Solutions

The program group Learning and Behavior Problems in Education: Challenges and Solutions strive to find solutions to the learning and behavior challenges faced by preschool and elementary-school children, youth, and young adults in education. In doing so, the group focuses on cognition and behavior and the interaction between them.

The research and teaching of the program group focuses on multiple literacies, reading, math, writing, and learning-related behavior. The group examines factors within the child as well as factors in the school, home, and society that influence learning and behavior in education. A fundamental goal of the research and teaching is to ensure that learners, as well as their teachers and parents, are able to successfully participate in education.
