Research project Contentful abstraction and generalization as logical operations in the formation of concepts

Based on the theory of Learning Activity, the project aims to investigate how abstraction and generalization, conceived as logical operations in the formation of a theoretical concept, are manifested in developmental instruction across various subjects.

Skolelever

Questions under exploration include: What role does a "general model" of the essence of the studied phenomenon play in abstraction and generalization as logical operations for the student?

Project description

How does this "general model" relate to the work students engage in during instructional sessions? In what manner is the process of abstraction manifested in teacher-student and student-student interactions?
