The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.
The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Reference of the Group:
Description of research activity: The LETRA research group (Reading and Writing: Learning Techniques and Resources) focuses on the cognitive, linguistic, and educational processes involved in the acquisition and development of reading and writing, as well as their teaching for learning and literacy. From an interdisciplinary perspective, the group uses diverse methodologies, including linguistic analysis, teaching studies, educational intervention studies, and experiments in school and community settings. LETRA addresses issues such as the impact of visual and phonological features of letters on learning, teaching in multilingual contexts, and the design of innovative educational resources to enhance literacy across populations. The group combines fundamental research on reading and writing processes with didactic applications aimed at transforming classroom practices.
