Research group on Curriculum, Resources and Educational Institutions (CRIE) already has a long history. It was established in 1991 within the Department of Education and School Management of the Universitat de València, with a group of lecturers from several universities. Over the years its objective remained unchanged: explore the policies and practices articulated in education systems, schools and classrooms.
As members of the group, with specific academic interests, we share the motivation to advance in the knowledge of how new ways of becoming active subjects of citizenship, capable of actively moving through a plural world, apparently without borders, are being developed in the classroom. Along the way, we have been dealing with such complex objects of analysis as: reforms, teaching innovation, curriculum planning, evaluation, teaching aids, comprehensiveness, school leadership, organisation, participation, citizenship, diversity, technologies, etc. However, back then and now, the production of knowledge by participating in research projects does not meet the expectations of those of us who are part of CRIE. We want to socialise our achievements by training students interested in our lines of work; in fact, some of them are already active members of the group as interns, doctoral students or even PhDs. The presence of the research group in society is reflected in the publication of our work, our participation in forums and all kinds of events, as well as in institutions that invite us. We assume these aims with our enthusiasm, the energy of new members and renewing the website as a gathering place for those who share our interests and motivations.
