Project number: K135766

In Hungary, almost all people were (or will be) sitting at school desks. Most of us, therefore, are interested in how schools teach and educate students. Many people think that they can come up with useful solutions for solving real or perceived questions in the field of education. However, any of the proposed solutions must fulfill two requirements. They have to be manageable and effective at the same time. In this research, we test the effects of light-touch interventions that are easy to apply in school practice. We will test the effect of these interventions with rigorous methodology. Our goal is to propose small changes that improve the effectiveness of school education within the existing system.
