The institute provides training activities in undergraduate and graduate programmes in different fields of Education and Training. In 2022-23, over 1,100 students are enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programmes, attracting more than 200 international students. The Institute of Education provides advisory and training services to educational organizations, as well as scientific and technical support for the design, monitoring and evaluation of public policies, especially in the areas of curriculum, didactics, assessment, teacher education and school administration, in Portugal and in Portuguese-speaking countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University of Lisbon has suitable facilities and resources for training and research activities: specialized library and laboratories, study rooms, computer rooms, wireless network and access to virtual libraries, etc. It also includes the Future Teacher Education Lab, a learning space equipped with the most advanced digital technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research and Development Unit in Education and Training (UIDEF) is the research unity at the Institute of Education in Lisbon University. UIDEF research is developed in close connection with the institute\u00b4s advanced training activities and with national and international research-funded projects. UIDEF research is carried out within the framework of the two programmes: Education XXI and Change Forces in Education. The first addresses the diversification, modernization and improvement of education. It studies the development of educational structures, processes and practices, including the integration and use of digital technologies, oriented towards the promotion of socially relevant learning. Attention is given to two central problems: quality of learning, considering issues related to the acquisition and development of competencies and skills, and inclusion, addressing the ongoing engagement with diversity. The second deals with the issues of coordination, steering and monitoring of change in education systems. Attention is given to two central problems: the professional development in education professions, particularly focusing on the socialization and training processes of teachers and other educators, and the processes and effects of participation and accountability in the governance of education systems, particularly focusing on the construction, implementation and assessment of educational public policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
